It has been reported everywhere I've seen it. It's pretty clear that it means Apple will be able to give information that you have let them give by storing it on iCloud.
The message seems to be that Apple are 'locking out the NSA' which is nonsense of course, but both may be counting on the fact that a typical consumer won't really look too closely at the claim. Their takeaway is that Apple's phones are perceived to be safer.
Apple gets to sell more phones due to this perception, the FBI get to continue hoovering (no pun intended) up iPhone user's data, and everyone goes home happy. It seems to be a manufactured controversy, with Apple & the FBI both playing their parts and knowing full well the rules of the game haven't changed one bit.
