b/c people were yelling at them about it and it was probably a little confusing?

Right off the bat AP tweeted something like "SCOTUS narrowly reverses..." which most people (myself included) thought would be a 5-4. That was within seconds of SCOTUSBlog even announcing the decision. It was probably a little sloppy on AP's part, but it could be read either way.

Once more reporting about the opinion trickled out it became apparent it was the opinion itself that was narrow, but not before people started reacting to the initial reporting.
