    The judge for the Rittenhouse trial said he’ll never again allow cameras in his court due to how skewed and edited the footage was when presented to the public.

    Trials are incredibly long and boring so the media cuts and edits things to add drama and entertainment, but that gives a terrible impression to the public about how the trial went.

    Also, Hitler gained popularity in Germany after his trial and imprisonment for leading a failed coup attempt thanks to the attention the media gave to it. This is uncomfortably similar.
