Frm wikipedia:

During the 1980 U.S. presidential campaign, the Citizens Party candidate Barry Commoner ran a radio advertisement that began with an actor exclaiming: “Bullshit! Carter, Reagan and Anderson, it’s all bullshit!” NBC refused to run the advertisement because of its use of the expletive, but Commoner’s campaign successfully appealed to the Federal Communications Commission to allow the advertisement to run unedited.[5]

So it was 1980.

What is the difference between an abbreviation and the word spelled out?

None!

Commoner was one of those pseudo-scientists (”The Closing Circle”) into doomsday scenarios, and served as one of the great ALgore’s earliest ‘inspirations’.
