Seems like an excuse for a camera crew and reporter jolly.

In that case presumably the reporter has been attending the trial, which is
quite difficult to do from his desk given the ban on recording devices in
court. And they're not allowed to film inside, so they have to do it
outside on the street.

That's what they want you to think. Quite often the reporter and
camera crew just turn up outside, film a report based on agency copy
and leave without ever entering the building.

Do they really?
