MRC’s Brent Baker reports the media were in Anthony Kennedy’s pocket last night:

In reporting the Supreme Court’s decision to bar the death
penalty for those under 18, the networks on Tuesday night stressed
how out of step the U.S. had become with the rest of the world and
ABC and CBS gave equal time to relatives of murderers as to
victim’s families. NBC anchor Brian Williams heralded how the
ruling “ends a practice that drew ridicule for years from some of
America’s closest friends around the world.” Peter Jennings
trumpeted how “this brings the U.S. into line with much of the
world.” ABC’s Manuel Medrano highlighted how “most of the world
has already outlawed juvenile executions” and lamented how the
U.S. “was among only a handful of countries permitting such
executions.” Medrano relayed how one woman “is relieved that
today’s decision means her father’s death sentence will never be
carried out.” CBS’s Jim Stewart passed along how a murderer’s
mother “was relieved, arguing that crimes committed as a juvenile
don’t deserve the ultimate grown-up punishment.”
