What makes you think the writer's of an historic National document wouldn't explicitly illustrate their point if they meant more than what was written?
They didn't know of the future invention of TV, radio, and the net, but if they did, wouldn't they agree those are encompassed within the first amendment too? Yet they are not in the first amendment.
