Did I somehow miss the repeal of the 1st amendment?

Did I somehow miss that the First Amendment was extended to prohibit private property owners from dictating what can be said on their property?

It’s not being said on their property, it’s the sale of a legal product on their premises by a lessee. Watch what would happen if a mall owner tried to dictate which books Borders Books could sell.
