„World DJ Day happens every March 9th. It marks the death anniversary of an iconic DJ called Alan Freed, aka Moondog, credited with popularizing DJing!”
It's a big problem that such a criminal and crook is artificially, deceitfully and thoughtlessly created as the patron of "World DJ Day". DJing he / this crook popularizing was total criminal = PAYOLA !!
Legal trouble, payola scandal
In 1958, Freed faced controversy in Boston when he told the audience, "It looks like the Boston police don't want you to have a good time." As a result, Freed was arrested and charged with inciting to riot, and was fired from his job at WINS.
Freed's career was significantly affected when it was shown that he had accepted payola (payments from record companies to play specific records), a practice that was highly controversial at the time. He initially denied taking payola but later admitted to his fans that he had accepted bribes.
In 1960, payola was made illegal. In December 1962, after being charged on multiple counts of commercial bribery, Freed pleaded guilty to two counts of commercial bribery and was fined three hundred dollars and given a suspended sentence.
