Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On March 18, 2014, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Entravision Communications Corporation (the “Company”) dismissed McGladrey LLP (“McGladrey”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. On March 21, 2014, the Company formally engaged Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to appoint Grant Thornton was approved by the Audit Committee.

The reports of McGladrey on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 and through March 18, 2014, there were no disagreements with McGladrey on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of McGladrey, would have caused McGladrey to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such years.

The Company has provided McGladrey with a copy of the disclosures it is making herein and has requested that McGladrey furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not McGladrey agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

No consultations occurred between the Company and Grant Thornton during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 and through March 21, 2014, regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or proposed transaction, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, or other written or oral information provided that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a “reportable event,” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
