MTV Networks is planning to host a live town hall with President Obama October 14, an executive familiar with the program confirms to TVNewser.
The town hall, which was first reported this morning by Politico’s Playbook, will be held Thursday October 14 at 4 PM, and will run on MTV, BET, CMT, MTV Tr3s and other MTV Networks. The executive also said the event would be streamed live online via the network’s websites.
Politico reports that MTV’s Sway Calloway, CMT’s Kate Cook and BET’s April Woodard will host the town hall, which will have an audience comprised of young people.
“I’m not old enough to vote, but if I could I’d vote for Obama”.
Vote or Die!
Rock the Vote!
Never works does it? The kids that vote have enough brains to think it through, those that watch this crappola and buy it don’t vote. Too busy watching MTV.
please do it!!
how about with no teleprompters?
The Media coming to Barry’s rescue.
I gotta laugh at the idiots who say that “The Media” is in the back pocket of Republicans.
The left is afraid...very afraid and trying to pull of another voter scam...get folks out to vote that have only heard the one side of what the Wizard of Zero has to say.
Goin after the youts.
The only place youth turnout will be high is in CA because of the marijuana initiative.
lib playbook rule # 27: “use the easily-entertained moronic youth to galvanize the movement”
That station has gone to hell since those good (sane) days, destroying the country with liberalism=socialism and moral relevance since then.
MTV: This is Barrack
Kid: Can we see Christine Aquilera, Madonna and Brittany french kiss each other?
MTV: Yes. We’ll be showing reruns after the show.
Seriously though... aren’t the kids who watch MTV way too young to vote (12, 13, 14)? Kids who are 18 and older wouldn’t be caught dead watching MTV or have things changed that much since my kid was young?
I remember MTV well. I watched that first video live. It was real fun to watch in the ‘80’s. U2, Joe Jackson, Billy Idol, Genesis, even Madonna was entertaining. Now, it’s nothing but trash-folk TV 24/7. I can’t imagine that anyone who actually watches that dreck would even consider voting to be anything but a “real drag, man”. So he can appear on such media all he wants. All it will do is make him look more and more trashy himself.
and does Zero really think that this is somehow a good idea?
I’ve blocked all those channels for the last 10 years, plus all the LMSM.
My children think we don’t have them.
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through
Well, maybe not.
Why in the hell is CMT there? (I know corporate) But think of the Dukes of Hazzards rerun that could be played!
Big whoop. MTV is only for pre-teens nowadays. My 21 yo wouldn’t be caught dead watching that crap.
It’s mostly just a reality TV channel.
how about with no teleprompters?
Obama talking without a teleprompter? No way.
That’s like an Italian talking without hands - can’t be done ;)

We had state/local elections on Oct 2. I was really impressed at the turn out in my precinct (red state).
