    Every headline says “narrowly.” How is a 7-2 decision narrow??? (Or are they talking about the fact that this doesn’t set a broad precedent?)pic.twitter.com/5NFlcZH4xj

        It's the second. The ruling is narrow because it really only applies to the facts of this particular case. There is no general rule set, and the Court does not say that a future discrimination claim in a different case would not succeed.

        I’m sure you are correct. (Misleading/confusing headline for the layman reader, or just me?)

        I haven't fully digested the opinion, but yea I think some of the headlines are probably misleading. Pete WIlliams on MSNBC just gave a pretty good summary of the holding.

        It’s the kind of thing that makes conservatives paranoid about liberal media bias. (In this case, it could be simply an honest/semantics challenge.)

        I think its more likely confusion among reporters and/or news consumers. Also, the tendancy to want to be first in reporting a decision like this often leads to errors. Remember what happened with the Obamacare decision?

        Should that (fair, but side) point—and not the actual lopsided decision—be *the headline*?

        Come on, Matt. You know full well narrow refers to the latter.

        Legally speaking, it is very narrow. It barely applies outside the bounds of this particular case. It's an "as applied" kind of case, not a broad beachhead for religious freedom. Alas.

        The ruling was narrow, not the vote.

        They’re talking about the narrow scope of the decision. They didn’t expand to say a bakery can exclude gay patrons full stop: just this artistic unique wedding cake issue from CO

        Yep, the latter. But given how many have tweeted with this confusion, they've taken the word narrowly out of the headline.

        I wonder if the headline was written before the details of the ruling were made known. Remember the accidental "Obamacare ruled unconstitutional" story?
