They never had a monopoly on speech...they had a monopoly on dissemination. That's changed now thanks to the net, talk radio, and FNC (Gawd I love how they hate FOX).
I have always wondered how much support could be generated for a restriction of the first amendment on par with the same rationale liberals use to erode the second amendment. "The founders had no idea an elite cabal would be able to spread their message to the exclusion of all others. Our modern understanding of the technology of propaganda is something they never dreamed of, and didn't prepare us for."
Personally, I'd settle for holding media and politicians accountable to libel laws, but easy access to the vast underground of cyberspace seems to balancing the scales nicely.
