It's not the kind of news that cable newschannels like to make.

But both CNN and Fox News made big mistakes in early reporting on the Supreme Court's ruling on health care legislation this morning, telling viewers on air and on social media that the court had struck down the law's individual mandate when it had not.

"It appears as if the Supreme Court has struck down the individual mandate," CNN reporter Kate Bolduan said, above a headline which read, "Supreme Ct. Kills Individual Mandate." Fox News was reporting the same news, as their reporter spoke above a headline reading "Supreme Court Finds Health Care Individual Mandate Unconstitutional." (at right, CNN's original mistaken headline and the corrected version)

CNN's original tweet read: "Supreme Court strikes down individual mandate portion of health care law. http://on.cnn.com/LvVRcK"
