Coverage of the main suit against the healthcare law was relegated mostly to newspapers, and only one network mentioned it briefly. While most sources hailed the decision as a preliminary victory for opponents of the law, they also cautioned that ultimately, this and other cases would likely be decided by the US Supreme Court. The
CBS Evening News (10/14, story 2, 0:15 Couric) reported that "the battle over healthcare reform may be heading to court. Twenty states have joined forces to challenge the new law and today, a Federal judge ruled key parts of their lawsuit may, in fact, go to trial."
