Quote from the article on the presence of reporters in the trial:  The Vatican prosecutor, Gian Piero Milano, dismissed the motion, saying an exception would only be made in extreme cases regarding "morals or public order." In a case like this one, he said according to the pool report, having journalists be present was "necessary" and in the "public interest."

Remember this moment.  It is rare.  Of course, it is not a hierarch or cleric on trial, but someone called for transparency and recognized the importance of acknowledging the there is a public - the rest of the world that supports the Vatican and the hospital.  Good heavens, the public matters!!!
