The reporter knows that a long chant repeating the word fuck makes an interview unairable unless they have some semblance of cover. It's literally their job to produce raw footage that can be aired. 'Not hearing' the profanity has absolutely worked before for getting out of fines. The FCC is a giant bureaucracy and can be sort of hacked that way if there's regulatory 'case law' like there exists for this situation. I agree it's not full proof, which is why I think the production staff if anything went out of their way to broadcast "fuck joe biden", contrary to the discourse on the matter.
