MTV Finally Drops 'Music Television' From Its Logo
by Annie Wu, posted Feb 9th 2010 2:28PM
At one point in history, MTV was known for being on the cutting edge of young programming and was quick to pick up on change. However, the network seemed unusually reluctant to stray from its original Music Television name, despite the fact the rest of the world was well-aware that their "music" programming was virtually non-existent. This reluctance was even more weird when MTV's final bastion of music videos, 'Total Request Live,' had the afternoon spot wrenched from its weakened hands.Well, MTV has finally caught up, making a visually minor but symbolically huge change to its logo: No more "music television."
