Question 1

Comedian George Carlin first listed a highly controversial list in 1972 in his monologue. He was arrested for disturbing the peace when he first performed the routine at a show in Milwaukee. At the time, it was unsuitable for broadcast these on the public airwaves in the U.S, whether radio or television. As such, they were avoided in scripted material, and bleep-censored if ever used; broadcast standards differ in different parts of the world, then and now, although most of the words on Carlin's original list remain taboo . The list was not an official list, but rather was compiled by Carlin. Nonetheless, a radio broadcast featuring these words led to a Supreme Court decision that helped establish the extent to which the federal government could regulate speech on broadcast in the United States.The monologue is popularly known as "Seven words you can ____ ____ ____ ____".
