The website for MTV News, the long-running news division of the music channel MTV, was shut down in June 2023. This means decades of music journalism content is no longer directly accessible. When you try to visit https://www.mtv.com/, you’ll be redirected to the main MTV website.
The closure was part of a larger decision by Paramount Global, the media conglomerate that owns MTV. Paramount reportedly shut down MTV News entirely in 2022. This move has been criticized by former MTV News staff and fans, who lament the loss of a valuable archive of music history and cultural commentary.
While the dedicated MTV News website is gone, some content may still be erreichbar (German for “accessible”) through the main MTV website or on other Paramount Global properties. However, the full scope of what’s been archived and what’s lost remains unclear.
