The following links are to FCC cases of indecency. Most of the current cases contain an HTML link. The older ones contain .wp and .txt links. The .txt extension is a text version. The .wp extension is a word perfect version. Very often, the word perfect version will contain more information. It is important to note that these links are provided as a point of reference and that outcome indicated may not be the final determination in any single case. At a minimum, it will give you an idea of what the FCC considers actionable. BTW, these are links to the files at the FCC site.
