If you are making excuses why the 1st amendment should be modified because of the new "press". Then the 2nd amendment should be revised because of new "guns".The founders never dreamed there would would be AK-47.Donald Trump seems to have no knowledge or ignores the freedom of the press as guaranteed in the 1st amendment.
Dictatorships, Kingdoms, Despots will not allow the press to print anything that is negative to the leader. Our founding Father's put the freedom of the press in the 1st amendment so a leader cannot suppress negative press.
Donald Trump feels a free press is unfair!
The founder never envisioned a press that would conspire to affect elections, they intended the press to be independent, reporting the goo and bad about everyone. Not collude to bury bad news about one candidate or party, while inventing bad stories or blowing crap totally out of proportion on the other. The job of the press it to report news, not tell us what it means or make judgments of what to bury.
They never dreamed there would be an Internet either and what does an AK-47 have to do with the First Amendment. What is your point?
Who said the First Amendment should be modified? I guess I missed that.
