With the precipitous decline and impending disappearance of the Fourth Estate, Americans must now begin the rebuilding process if the First Amendment's guarantee of a free press is to have any useful meaning for future generations. This is vital as we are currently embroiled in a war of ideas, and while the Fourth Estate might in the past have served as a forum for such ideas, it now serves only as a dumping ground for the nations otherwise least employable individuals.
At this juncture this once treasured constitutional guarantee provides little more than 2 years of the Atlantic Monthly for $20- slightly less than the cost of a package of toilet paper.
For an extra $1.99, the toilet paper arrives at your home devoid of feces. Presumably that accounts for the cost difference.
