Cable operators including systems owned by Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Cox, and Suddenlink, should be checking their mailboxes.

The commission said it mailed out the letters Nov. 14 to a randomly selected group of operators.

The FCC annually audits the EEO programs of approximately 5% of MVPDs and broadcasters. The first two mailings went to broadcasters. Now it is cable's turn.
