U.S. communications regulators plan to issue decisions soon in about 40 cases involving complaints against broadcasters 
for violating federal decency limits, a source close to the matter said on Wednesday.

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission is considering a proposal to rule that the word "s***" is profane and 
violates decency limits in certain contexts, the source said, declining further identification. The agency has already 
declared the word "f***" off-limits in most cases.
