I don’t like the idea that the First (or any other) Amendment should be violated because there is already so much precedent for it.

- sofixa 4y agoOr maybe it could be amended to be adapted to the today's world (i doubt recommendation algorithms were on the minds of 18th century lawmakers).
- Cyberdog 4y agoNo, but the broader idea of sensationalist journalism wouldn't have been a foreign concept. At any rate, there is a process for amending the Constitution, so if you want the First Amendment to change such that the federal government has a clear mandate to do this sort of thing, feel free to campaign for that. But just repeated violation by the state is not that process.
