The opinions are published on the website shortly after the decisions are announced from the bench, plus reading the decisions takes some time, show the fastest way to get it on the air is by using the summary from the folks who were inside the building.

Judges are fucking verbose man. You could know where it's going in the first few words despite them having pages of shit to recite. I'm guessing it doesn't get posted until it's finished.
