Clarification: Hulk Hogan does not want to ban members of the press from the courtroom during his trial. [x-post reddit] Re/Code, owned by Vox Media, is running a shit headline of "Media Organizations Oppose Hulk Hogan's Move to Block the Press From Sex Trial".  This is a misleading title. His attorney requested that the sex tape and evidence pursuant to his case only be shown to the members of the court (by turning the monitors away from the gallery), and not the public.  The press and the public are not banned from being present.  Hogan's attorney wants to ensure that the reactions of the gallery/press viewing the evidence cannot potentially influence the decisions of the jury. >In an interview with Poynter on Saturday, Hogan’s attorney, Charles Harder, said he does not intend to shut the press out of the courtroom entirely; rather, he wants monitors showing the sex tape facing away from the gallery towards the judge, jury and attorneys.
