The First Amendment was written when type had to be set manually and the press was hand-powered by the Printer or his Apprentice—So I guess it doesn’t apply to anything, media-wise, that has since been developed.

You mean the First Amendment doesn’t apply to “Assault Printers” that spew out thousands of newspapers per minute? And the technology of transmitting information to millions of people simultaneously should only be in the hands of trained government representatives. It is far too powerful for private ownership.
