Dick Clark sued for age discrimination
A 76-year-old game show producer sued “American Bandstand†icon Dick Clark’s production company for age discrimination Monday, saying he was “embarrassed, humiliated and aggravated†when he was passed up for a job by his fellow septuagenarian.Ralph Andrews, producer of such game shows as “Liar’s Club†and “Celebrity Sweepstakes,†claims in his Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit that Clark, 74, sent him a letter in May of 2003 saying he was too old for a job with his production company.
In Clark’s defense, he looks much younger than 74.

Jeez, I think I can remember watching Dick Clark when he was 34!
How the heck does a 74-year-old man manage to make a 42-year-old man feel old?
