The speech aired live on the East Coast. The FCC said it
received 234 complaints, all but 17 of them from individuals
associated with the Parents Television Council, a nonprofit
group that monitors programs for adult content.

That's an adverb, not an adjective.

Um, no; it is modifying "brilliant", which is a noun. Thus it is an adjective.

Flash to "Robo-Cop,"

"Dick, you're fired!"

"Dit dah dit dah dit dah..." [sound of Morse Academy eliminating Dick]
