Citizens United decided that Section 2 would run afoul of Section 3, so that's ...interesting.

Oh, are the Koch brothers journalists now?

They do contribute funding to journalism.  The publishers of The Nation are also a corporation and attempts to influence the results of elections.  It's hard to find a clear division between the press and political advertising. Certainly none existed during the period when the First Amendment was written. Newspapers were partisan or factional documents, and political communications - other than what was spoken directly - literally were printed on a press. Freedom of the Press isn't limited to what Congress decides is objective journalism.
