    Interesting reporting that I saw at ABCnews.go.com on this (above) and one other case. Concerning the gerrymandering in Virginia their headline is "Democrats in Virginia win at Supreme Court in racial gerrymandering case" but for the Oregon bakery their headline is "Supreme Court engages on same-sex marriage cake case, hands win to baker, for now" [emp. mine]. For now SCOTUS may have sidestepped the most substantive issue in the bakery case, but for now they also did not "decide" on gerrymandering either. The Democrats "won" on the basis of the SCOTUS saying the Virginia House of Delegates lacked standing to bring the case -- so they did not make a decision on the actual gerrymandering. Just think this illustrates some of the bias in reporting.
