fox saying that the aba just issued a statement sayin alito did NO wrong in the vanguard case, so kennedy is lying
Kennedy is making the narrow point(less) that Alito made a promise during hearings to recuse from Vanguard cases. I bet the promise included at least the unstated assumption that recusal would occur if there was a conflict or appearance of one.
ABA is making the point that recusal was not required, IOW, the "promise" that Teddy is bleating about is not "relevant" to the question of judicial ethics.
Wonder if that's being reported on the other channels.
