In his write-up on The Page of the Supreme Court's ruling on Ricci v. DeStefano, Mark Halperin did not note that the Court was split, voting 5-4 in favor of reversing the U.S. 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruling. In addition, while mentioning that Monday is retiring Supreme Court Justice David Souter's last day, Halperin did not note that Souter agreed with the 2nd Circuit's decision in Ricci.
