I haven't read the book, but to the extent that the authors are claiming that the 1st amendment trumps copyright as a matter of law, they are simply wrong. There are *no* cases that support this view, and all cases addressing this topic come out in the opposite direction.

Of course, they may simply be presenting and argument for how things should be. In which case they should stop writing books and write forum posts instead.
