HERE is CNN's take on it. Both articles state it well, but CNN doesn't doctor-up its headline so much.

If anyone won, it was the non-Affirmative Action camp. Why? Because the Law School's program was upheld narrowly, 5-4, and the undergrad point system program was struck down solidy. 6-3.

Anyway, here you have a rare instance that constitutional scholars dream of. All too often the Court leaves open the questions, "Well, if that won't work, but something might, then what will?" Here there are Two cases, same issue, the Court saying Thumbs-up to one and Thumbs-down to another. A clearer indication of what is off-limits couldn't be dreamed of.
