George Carlin’s battle with the FCC started with his iconic “Seven Dirty Words” routine, where he listed the words you supposedly couldn’t say on TV. This bit sparked controversy in 1972 when a radio station aired it, leading to a listener complaint and eventually a Supreme Court case in 1978.

George Carlin's genius wasn't just in making us laugh; it was in making us think. His clash with the FCC over the "Seven Words" bit set a legal precedent on free speech in broadcasting.
