Anything goes?

It used to be that there were a ton of words that you could not say on TV or radio. Slowly those rules were relaxed and it seemed that the only thing that you couldn't say was the F word. Now, it seems that even that may be acceptable.

According to a Reuter story, Bono used the word during the Golden Globes Awards on NBC. The FCC the received complaints, but determined that it "failed to meet the test for indecency."

I knew the day would come, but I'm surprised that it has come so soon. Evidently, as long as you are not referring to sex, dropping the F-bomb (as an adjective) is acceptable.
