Judge Aileen Cannon bars media from using courtroom electronics in Trump documents case

U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon on Wednesday ruled that media organizations could not bring electronic devices into the courtroom to assist in reporting on former President Donald Trump's trial for allegedly mishandling classified documents.

In a motion on Monday, a group of media outlets asked Cannon to allow the use of electronic devices. The group included NBC, ABC, CNN, and over a dozen others.
