Dear MTV,
Twenty or so years ago, there was an emerging televised art form known as 'the music video.' Perhaps you've heard of it? Anyway, music videos have been disappearing off of television to make room for reality shows such as "Bromance."
Shows of this caliber remind me of how happy I am to not have a television. Had I a television, I would undoubtedly be browsing television music channels for videos only to crushed under the pile of burning ashes that is reality television. As a 21-year-old college student, I am unclear how this applies to my demographic, or even why.
There was once a time when music was seen as a part of culture, but it has now passed into the oblivion of vanity thanks to shows like "Bromance." Thus, I will probably avoid watching television until some brave general television station starts airing prime-time music videos again.
Sincerely,
- Ryan
