Obscenity would get you a citation, but bull**** is not on the

It does, however, contain a word that is.
And as every communications or constitutional lawyer knows, the
"Seven Dirty Words " (not the actual title of the monologue by

thing that the original complaining listener objected to being
broadcast.
The FCC has never used a list of words for enforcement purposes.
