BUCKLEY, Circuit Judge,
concurring:
I wish to disassociate myself from the sixth and seventh paragraphs of the court’s equal protection discussion, part III.B of the majority opinion. As we conclude that the Secretary’s media exemption “survives even the most stringent review” under Austin v. Michigan Chamber of Commerce, — U.S. -, 110 S.Ct. 1391, 108 L.Ed.2d 652 (1990), Maj. Op. at 1237, it is not necessary for the disposition of this case to inquire into the applicability of intermediate scrutiny under Zablocki v. Redhail, 434 U.S. 374, 98 S.Ct. 673, 54 L.Ed.2d 618 (1978). I join in all other aspects of the court’s opinion.
