There are dozens of reporters trapped at section 114 and they are not letting them back inside the arena. Ushers said the fire marshal won’t let more people in (even though these reporters have assigned seats).

Alden is making obscene money; we want fair wages to fight inflation, recognize our efforts to provide watchdog journalism and bring fairness to the gender, ethnic and racial disparities in pay. Alden needs to stop being stupid. Don't cut healthcare. Protect seniority.
Investigative reporter Ray Long went on strike because he hasn’t had a raise “in years & years & years” as Alden squeezes reporters and readers.
“We want Alden to know that we will not buckle to their baloney and we’re ready to rock — harder & harder & harder.” — @RayLong

The shocking news about jurors streaming the hearing on cell phones in the back has caused the judge to take a break.
Everyone is asking each other in the courtroom what this means big picture.
