 FCC  CONTINUES  EEO  RANDOM  AUDITS 
 On  June  10,  2005,  the  Federal  Communications  Commission  (FCC)  began  mailing  the  second  of  its  Equal  Employment  Opportunity  (EEO)  audit  letters  for  2005  to  randomly  selected  broadcast 
 stations  and  multi-  channel  video  programming  distributors  (MVPDs).  In  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  47  C.  F.  R.  §§  73.2080(  f)(  4)  and  76.77(  d)  of  the  Commission’s  EEO  rules,  the  FCC 
 is  auditing  the  EEO  programs  of  randomly  selected  broadcast  licensees  and  MVPDs.  Each  year,  approximately  five  percent  of  all  stations  and  MVPDs  are  selected  for  random  EEO  audits. 


 A  list  of  the  stations  and  MVPDs  to  which  audit  letters  were  sent  is  attached.  Audit  letters  will  be  mailed  to  additional  broadcast  licensees  and  MVPDs  throughout  the  year.
