I don't know what was being televised, but a hell of a lot happens during a trial that is not earth-shattering. There is "housekeeping" of all kinds -- procedural motions, docketing, etc. He also has other clients toward whom he has obligations. And he has to communicate with his staff about bringing over exhibits of all kinds for the defense of Ms. Anthony. I don't see this as unusual in any way.
Another attorney here. I would never, ever, ever pull out my phone while the judge was on the bench.
