I don't understand the headline. It seems to be saying "Top Law Firms Won't Support Gay Marriage", this is a mark against it.
However, the article seems to be saying the opposite: top law firms are all FOR it, and those opposed don't have top representation.

- agrona 11y agoOh I see. The confusion arises because the antecedent of "it" is unclear. I read "it" as referring to "gay marriage" and not "the case against gay marriage". How confusing.
