Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of degenerates. They should go back to like how they were in the early 80’s.
I can’t wait until we only pay for the cable channels we want to have. MTV will die.
.....couldn't happen to nicer people....
MTV and VHI should stick to playing music videos and get rid of the annoying shows and “hosts”.
If you’ve watched MTV recently you have to wonder how it takes more than 12 people to run that place.
I’m worried that if ‘creative’ types are axed we’ll never see programs like A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila again.
The major music industry is now about celebrity, not music. Just as the presidency is no longer about politics, either.
Can’t see a la carte cable anytime soon. Although I do hope it is required if they start limiting internet. If they get to decide how much downloading we do, we should get to decide how much cable we want.
Wish I could axe the channel frm cable and get the fees back I am paying for that nonsense.
When will a la carte finally arrive?
Or in LOGO's case they dropped the soap.
hmmm. Do you think they’d get rid of “Daisy of Love” too? That would cause me to bring out the huge manatee.
ONLY 75?
I was hoping for more.
the little darlings just don’t have the kind of discretionary income they once had...
TS MTV.
Surely the numbers would have been much bigger if not for the stimulus package.
They mean forcing MTV into the ground - their viewership has been steadily declining for years.
Maybe they can now get real jobs.
That’s their most popular tv program.
Remember when MTV used to show videos?
Of course now with YouTube, you don’t even need them for that.
Big Media opposes “a la carte” channel selection.
Viacom (parent corp to CBS, MTV, VH1, Nick, Logo, Comedy Central, etc.), Disney (parent corp to ABC, Disney, ESPN...), General Electric (parent corp to NBC, CNBC, MSNBC...), and Time-Life-Warner-Turner (parent corp to HBO, CINEMAX, CNN, CNN Headline, TBS, TNT, TMC...) thrives on your monthly cable bill.
Defund the Left. Drop your pay tv-programming.
Even if they gave it away, they still need to audience for advertising revenue and for influence (they have to tell you what’s hip, who’s in, who to vote for, etc.).
