The NYTimes Twists the News

Apparently, the newly discovered legality/mainstreamness of same-sex marriages is now well enough established to call traditional marriage advocates 'challengers.' The NYTimes headline:
A New Challenge to Same-Sex Marriages
No word on how the historical norm got delegated to challenger status.
My favorite line:

Mr. Romney's endorsement of the amendment is likely to inject new vigor into the efforts of gay marriage opponents, who failed to block a court decision that allowed the marriages to begin in May 2004.

How in the world are you supposed to block a court decision, except by an ammendment?!
