FAIRFAX, Va.—Professional services company Widelity Corporation is launching a new practice division with the task of helping TV and radio stations maintain compliance with FCC Online Public Information File requirements and avoiding fines.
Citing staff reductions because of COVID-19 and approaching renewal deadlines for filings regarding political advertising, EEO compliance, updating issues/program files, children’s programming and more, Widelity is providing an outsourcing option so these filings can be made on time.
The new service offers broadcasters a partner that can monitor and manage deadlines and handle filings.
The company says that it has already assisted 400 TV and radio stations with filing requirements, with a focus on regions with imminent filing deadlines for renewals.
For more information, stations can contact Mike Lasky (mike.lasky@widelity.com) or Jim Glogowski (jim.glogowski@widelity.com), or visit www.widelity.com/OPIF.
