8. That is precisely why I agree with SC on this one.

Since there is no way to distinguish between "the media" and other corporations, the restrictions would have permitted governments to censor political speech in newspapers, magazines, books, radio, television, blogs, civil liberty advocates, 2nd Amendment advocates, etc.

Congress abhors the 1st Amendment in the same way that Dracula despises sunshine. Blood suckers prefer to carry out their evil deeds under the cover of darkness.
