The Spin

Left narrative

Conservative judges have never seemed concerned about jury trials when it comes to workers seeking to avoid private arbitration with their corporate employers. This is just an attempt by conservatives to dismantle the agencies policing wealthy citizens who are committing misdeeds. Luckily for those who believe in equal justice, the right-leaning justices seemed unprepared to completely obliterate the agencies at this time.

Right narrative

Agencies like the SEC have grown too powerful, and agencies' in-house judges are nothing more than over-protected political cronies doing the left's bidding. It's time to right the wrong of denying would-be SEC violators a jury trial, and hopefully move on to reining in other overgrown government agencies after this case is decided.
