There’s nothing in the First Amendment which says the press has to be ethical, upright, or even accurate. It contains no qualifiers. Government can’t make laws restricting speech. Laws which compel publishers to disclose sources etc. should not considered Constitutional.
-
It does however have to not break the law.

Huh? The First Amendment now protects against media organizations having to respond to subpoenas investigating their criminal conduct?
-
Looking forward to CNN and Buzzfeed being subpoenad to Session's DOJ to go over the Hillary Dossier issue, including their sources.

Great point! Why the hell would they need immunity? What possible crime is it to NOT publish a story?! NYT does it every day! 2012 the D’s used photos of RUSSIAN fleet in video to honor US veterans- not a peep from MSN. “Giving immunity” implies a crime - there isn’t one!

I can't see this as a 1A issue. The CEO isn't in trouble for anything he said. He effectively laundered money for the Trump campaign. I don't think the amendment comes into play when committing a felony.

Effectively and actually are two very different things. Ever hear of a woman being "effectively" pregnant? A crime was committed or it was not. No gray areas.

As with everything else, if it doesn’t forward their liberal agenda, the leftstream media absolutely won’t report on it.

Buying the rights to quash a story is in no way an act of free speech.
