[78-L] Dick Clark gone

[David Lennick]

The 1958 date is from one of the comments below the video, so I have no

A real bottom line guy who paid employees as little as he could get away with and whose facade of niceness on the air hid a cold-hearted interior. I also hated that he never permitted acts on AB to play live. Everything had to be lip-synched to save money on production costs, licensing, performance royalties - he knew the business but I'll bet he still had the first dollar he ever earned.
