I have no idea how the media makes it out to be. But I do know that they have reversed precedent in several recent cases. They probably won't in this instance, but I'm less confident of that than I was 5 or 10 years ago.
I honestly seldom read anything the media has to say about legal cases because they seldom understand the issues involved and seldom understand the actual rulings or the reasons for them because, except for a very small number, they aren't trained in how to read cases and interpret them.
