1. An acronym used by many cynics as a way to express their hatred toward the corporate culture that they
will never have the
will power to escape. MTV is evidently not a major source of musical deterioration, as other sources (i.e. the
internet, radio) has enlightened these cynics on what "true"
music is, which fluxuates, as "true"
music to one may be garbage to others, a rule that some have yet to realize is true. If one turns on MTV today, the music videos are only one minute long; the majority of MTV has turned into reality and dating television programs that are laced with small segments of
music as use of an accent that you
will find anywhere on any network. MTV is not facist; they do not control anyone, especially anyone that is placing a meaning on this website. If somebody enjoys the programs on MTV, it does not make them shallow, and it certainly does not make them a "societal tool used for profit".
2. MTV is
Music Television. Started in the eighties, its programs have gradually grown farther from its original idea, thus causing much animosity from viewers who are looking for actual Music on their Televisions.
