     ABSTRACT:
     The freedom of speech has been characterized as the
     matri, the indispensable condition of nearly every
     other form of freedom, and is clearly the touchstone
     of individual liberties embodied in the
     Constitution.[1] It comes as no surprise, therefore,
     that the free speech guarantee of the First Amendment
     has been subject to intense judicial scrutiny and
     formulation. As a result, constitutional scholars are
     apt to spend much intellectual effort in theorizing
     various judicial approaches to the tremendous body of
     First Amendment law.[2] The effort is complicated
     enormously through First Amendment jurisprudence
     dictating that the free speech guarantees apply
     differently to various information media — print,
     radio broadcasting, television broadcasting, and cable
     broadcasting.[3] With the recent prevalence of the
     Internet[4] as a popular tool for information
     dissemination, constitutional scholars and jurists
     face yet another dimension to the First Amendment
     spectrum of application.
