The FCC Won't Let Me Be

 I was not able to make it to a local radio station during business due to work. However, I did some research on what is supposed to be in these files. 
Go to the Federal Communications Commission homepage at www.fcc.gov
Here is that list:

  • FCC Authorizations
  • Applications and related materials
  • Contour Maps
  • Ownership reports and related materials
  • Portions of the Equal Employment Opportunity file
  • The Public and Broadcasting manual
  • Children's television programming reports
  • DTV transition education reports
  • Citizen agreements
  • Political file
  • Letters and e-mails from the public
  • Material relating to FCC investigations and complaint
  • Issues/Programs lists
  • Donor lists for non-commercial educational channels
  • Records concerning children's programming commercial limits
  • Local public notice certifications and announcements
  • Time brokerage agreements
  • Must-carry or retransmission consent elections 
  • Joint sales agreements
  • Sponsorship Identification - Political Matter and Controversial Issues of Public Importance
