1Opinion of the Court
REAVLEY, Circuit Judge:
Mississippi is one of several states which significantly restrict liquor advertising by the local media.1 Two suits were filed attacking, principally on First Amendment grounds, the Mississippi law. The District Courts for the Northern and Southern Dis*740tricts of Mississippi reached opposite judgments in those cases. Dunagin v. City of Oxford, 489 F.Supp. 763 (N.D.Miss.1980) (upholding); Lamar Outdoor Advertising, Inc. v. Mississippi State Tax Commission, 539 F.Supp. 817 (S.D.Miss.1982) (invalidating).2 We uphold the constitutionality of the Mississippi law.
