ABC is airing a 2-hour special about Dick Clark on New Years Eve. It seems only fitting after all his contributions to New Year's Eve in America over the past fifty years.
Clark passed away in April at the age of 82. I met him many times during my broadcasting career and always found him to be a gentleman. He was truly one of the titans in the television business, but he never forgot that he came from the world of radio. He always had a soft spot for radio guys and gals.
I'm glad to see we'll have him with us for one more New Years Eve.
