In addition, this decision by the Robert's court proves what liberals have been saying all along, conservatives can't keep their dirty minds out of other Americans bedrooms.

That was "hours before the decision was announced". i.e. it was AFTER the decision had been made and was a standard leaking of fresh news just before it was made public.

This is far different. The decision has not been reached yet. This is not the actual decision. This is a completely different type of leak.

I got that from the link, actually. From the article: "The issue of Time, with an article titled “The Sexes: Abortion on Demand,” appeared on newsstands hours before the decision was announced by Justice Harry Blackmun."

The final decision was announced hours before Blackman himself announced it. It was not a "draft" decision. It was a final decision. And that was actually due to a fluke. "Hammond confided in an acquaintance he knew from the University of Texas School of Law that the Roe ruling was forthcoming. The acquaintance, a Time staff reporter named David Beckwith, was given the information “on background” and was supposed to write about it only once the opinion came down from the court. A slight delay in the ruling, however, resulted in an article that appeared in the issue of the magazine that hit newsstands a few hours before the opinion was read on Jan. 22, 1973."
