DICK CLARKS 40th ANNIVERSARY NEW YEARS EVE in NEW YORK : HIGHEST RATING IN 11 YEARS

DICK CLARK ; they call him America's Oldest Teenager. I can testify that he is one of the hardest working men in the business but a couple years ago Dick had a stroke. He's been working hard at recovering from that stroke too, rebuilding his strength and his speech. Some people say they are sad to see Dick. I say let's give him a standing ovation.
