The New York Times removed a word from its Wordle answers in a bid to keep the popular online game 'distinct from the news.'

The New York Times has removed the word"fetus" from its Wordle answers in a bid to keep the popular online game"distinct from the news."

The Times said the word was loaded into the game last year -- before the publisher acquired it -- adding:"When we discovered last week that this particular word would be featured today, we switched it for as many solvers as possible." According to the draft, the court would overturn Roe v. Wade's holding of a federal constitutional right to an abortion. The opinion would be the most consequential abortion decision in decades and transform the landscape of women's reproductive health in America.

The controversial draft Supreme Court opinion was circulated in early February, according to Politico, which obtained it. The final opinion has not been released and votes and language can change before opinions are formally released. The opinion in this case is not expected to be published until late June.
