The camera was stolen from an independent television studio. The man in question, Diethard, apparently is only interested in getting high ratings and refused a government position (see episode 4) to supply government-controlled media.

Now for all we know, he may suffer some repercussions for what happened. Although the Emperor's emphasis on survival of the fittest motto may allow TV producers to compete for ratings etc.

Anyway, since when did everything in anime have to make sense?
