   The whole MTV News archives are gone.

   20 years of pop culture news and archives gone just like that. https://variety.com/2024/digital/news/mtv-news-website-archives-pulled-offline-1236047163/

   I hope #ArchiveTeam managed to save some of those content although Paramount should be very ashamed of themselves.

   That's #capitalism for you.

     @joeo10 they also canceled the music awards this year - there must be some corporate shenanigans going on.

     @obrien_kat Same, I remember when lots of forums I went to went poof and it's now a trend for shuttered websites to go down this path as well.

     I recall someone that said the 2010s internet is now a endangered species much like the 2000s version. I believe them.

     @joeo10 that’s a bummer, I hate seeing archives disappear.

     You can add the Comedy Central website and its videos of TV clips that Paramount decide to kill. https://www.indiewire.com/news/business/paramount-taking-down-entire-websites-tv-clips-mtv-comedy-central-cmt-1235020544/
