No. We recognize that “freedom of the press” extends to new technologies, like blogs. If we pass a law that puts a tax on newspapers, we don’t apply that tax to blogs unless the law explicitly says so. We update the law to include blogs, if we need to. In that way, when “those implications come up” we do not treat the constitution the same way we treat laws.
