At Volokh Conspiracy, Eugene Volokh:  Freedom for the Press — Protection for an Industry/Profession, or for All Users of a Technology?

And a follow-up:  Freedom of the Press as Protecting All Users of Mass Communications Technology — Responding to the Redundancy Objection.

Professor Volokh is quite simply the leading modern scholar of the original meaning of the First Amendment.  His example of how to use originalism to reinterpret a field should be an inspiration.  (I'm not saying I agree with him on everything, of course.)
