FCC media regulatory compliance

While regulatory and compliance standards are designed to help organizations attain their business goals, some are intended to ensure data protection. Laws or regulations applicable to any business process, when violated, may invite legal punishments and federal fines. Regulatory violations can also tarnish the brand reputation. With changes made to the regulations by legislative bodies on the rise, laws mandating the adherence to regulations have also become stringent.

Regulations vary from industry to industry, which explains the fact why some industries are more heavily regulated than the others. As regards to broadcasting, the Federal Communications Commission or the FCC, a federal agency of the Congress, is the regulatory body.

The broadcast law pertains to services related to both radio and television and checks for technical parameters and content issues like irreverence, copyright issues, and political and social ideologies like localism and regionalism.
