I would argue that a newsletter, email list, etc. IS a media outlet.

As a media outlet it is PERMITTED to mention issues and candidates.

Why can't the NRA start its own Constitutional News Channel? Wouldn't that allow it to present "news" on 2nd Amendment issue prior to an election?

When I first put together my newspaper, I thought about going for tax exempt status. But when I looked at the amount of rules I'd have to comply with, it was a non-starter.

Better for them if they simply find someone friendly to handle the distribution of information, or just get rid of the tax exempt status.

You may have missed where the second amendment was recently discarded by the Supreme Court.
Happened maybe a month ago.
