Even if the Freedom of the Press was construed with such wooden literalism so as to apply only to the print media (because TV and radio do not use presses for the dissemination of ideas), surely the Freedom of Speech could not be interpreted in such a niggardly fashion. That being said, I don’t think that a law that punishes a person who calls for the murder of citizens and publishes their home addresses violates the First Amendment in any way, shape or form.
