I'm not in the US but doesn't that downplay it a bit? Hasn't this been a contentious topic for some time? It's not like no one's been talking about it and Utah suddenly decided out of the blue.

No, not really. There are a couple municipalities (Portland, OR, e.g.) that have famously not fluoridated their water forever, but for the most part this is not something most places argue about. UT is an exception.
The "big political fight" here is that one out of fifty US states changed its mind, to be clear.

recently they managed to bring this to a court, and the judge was convinced by the evidence, and ruled that water fluoridation is harmful.
downplayed? you judge.
