He doesn't get access to the ABC feed (which is GOOD), nor does he have (instant) access to or control over their camera angles.
This is the whole point - he was forced to make a decision based on the amount of time, by the other referees and the ABC production team, and he totally blew it. He admits this freely, and knew at the time that something was wrong, but didn't get the angles he needed (which requires him to say "can't overturn").
