> news helicopters to cover a fatal accident several hundred feet underground?

Well, the news helicopters are usually buzzing around anyway during certain hours, looking at traffic or lining up live shots.

It's likely they were coming from some other assignment, or on their way to get something else for the noon news, when the incident at Porter happened.

From WBZ Twitter a few hours ago: "Chopper is now live over Porter Square station on http://wbztv.com. Unfortunately, not a lot to see from outside." Would they have been happier if they could have seen the deceased person?

Well, they didn't know someone was deceased yet. They might have been expecting an accident on the commuter rail side which of course would be visible.
