How do I get a job counting f-words? It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it.

The f-word was first used on UK television in 1965, when drama critic Kenneth Tynan used it live in a BBC interview. It caused outrage at the time, but many look back on the event as a cultural milestone.

It would be interesting to know if Mr. Tynan was fired for his error.

I hope that he was.
