Because the app does not support video output such as you describe.  (Apps can control whether video is output from a device that may support video output.)  The same is the case on Android devices using HDMI output, although early versions of the app (before about a year ago) allowed HDMI connections, they no longer do. 

I inquired about this and was told that it is a result of content provider restrictions related to security.  Both HDMI out and Air Play are unencrypted output.  I was also told they Verizon wants to enable this capability and is working to find a solution.
