We need explanation here.
In the first amendment, we have a right to both freedom of speech and freedom of the press. My question is, are there any functional differences between the two rights, or is the freedom of the press just a logical extension of the freedom of speech? If not, what freedoms are granted by a freedom of the press that are not granted by a freedom of speech? How is "the press" defined for the purposes of these rights?
Do you suppose that we have reached the both of them in the state?
