The reason is people have brain size no bigger than a pea. Why do you think we have cable and network news stations? The transcripts of each court procedure is out there for all to review. There is no need for TV shenanigan in the highest court procedures. We already have a mute on the bench.
It's the 21st century, folks. Cameras are everywhere, and in a lot of cases, this is a good thing. Americans as a whole long ago left the printed word in favor of 'motion picture' footage as its preferred medium for consuming civic (& every other kind of) information.
If popular democracy matters (as I think it does NOT to more than a couple of men on the SCOTUS) we should bring the Court into the video age.

RBG's take on this is the only credible one.
