Radio (as well as television, cable, wire and satellite) in the US is regulated and monitored by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Radio and television are strictly monitored for obscenity, indecency and profanity, particularly between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m., when children are expected to be awake.
