Did you read what you posted? The NRA can advertise any time all it has to do is NOT refer to a specific candidate.
Rather than the Schumer bill just refer to the proposed bill against Assault weapons. No restrictions are placed upon print ads as I said.

Freedom of the press was routinely restricted in states after 1787. Same with allowing taxation to support churches.

Scalia's comments (though I have not read his entire dissent) do not do him justice and appear to miss the point.
Most of the comments I have read here of those opposed to this law are simply incorrect such as your wrt the print media. Besides I said "only an absolute fool would be hindered by it." I stand by that and just watch the RATS get around the restrictions by simple legal manuevers.

Conservatives can't be stupid or pass unwise laws? I wish.
