That line about "the level of the nigra," sums it up right there. They hated the music because black peoploe were being musical and breaking down the racial barriers.
The only obscenities and vulgarities are the idiots being interviewed. However, without all this opposition, would rock'n'roll have made the impact that it did? By the adults not accepting it, early rock artists had to push themselves harder to prove their music was music, and not noise.
They were probably mad because the adults' beloved Your Hit Parade was losing ratings in favor of American Bandstand and other things. The support their Como/Page/Brewer/Welk/Liberace idols!
If I was transported back to the '50s, I would tell that DJ that Jazz music was once considered the devil's music, and by that time was considered respectable, and tell them that rock will follow suit.
These anti-rock 'n rollers were correct about the cultural debasement that has hit the Western world in the following decades, but it just wasn't all the fault of rock music alone.

@MegaAstrodude He actually said "niggra" which was supposed to be a more "polite" version of the word back then.

@pannoni1 Don't get all upset for those who saw disco die! Rock's backlash came first, and it shows both genres live on today!
