   Are they looking for suggestions for what the M can stand for now? The article didn't say.

     Stop questioning the wisdom of your corporate masters, taxpayer!

       It's not cropped off, it's sinking below the surface.

         And here I thought they had already sunk as low as possible.

   Now they can drop the M. It's all been downhill since Real World season 1.

   Heh, I read "MTVTM" on the right side, which is a nice palindrome - though most likely unintended.

   They should have just added a "&" between Musik and Television if they really think they still have music somewhere in the program.

   The most puzzling part about this change is why they switched "®" ("registerered trademark") to "™" ("unregistered trademark").
