D*** Clark was a clever guy. He got the host job on American Bandstand after the prior host was fired for bribes and s***** involvement with the kids.

D*** Clark avoided all the teenage girls. Naive girls are unable to keep silent about their personal business, especially about s**.

D*** Clark put the bribes above the table and out in the open. He formed a company D*** Clark productions and for a fee (bribe) had his name put on the records as the writer of the lyrics. As such he was entitled to payment. No one saw a ‘conflict of interest’ in Clark promoting the bands and records that paid him a fee for his ‘lyrics’. So Clark made a lot of money.
