Never mind

We blogged over the weekend about the fact that the federal civil trial of the lawsuit over California's same-sex marriage law was going to be televised, but only in a few other courtrooms, such as the Pioneer Courthouse here in Portland. To us, that seemed pretty stingy. But forget even that -- the U.S. Supreme Court has blocked the video relay outside of the courthouse in which the trial is being held.

Maybe they ought to turn off the electricity and conduct the whole proceeding by candlelight.

What's most interesting, I think, is who's behind the effort to keep these proceedings off the air: the proponents of Prop. 8.
