MTV Was Awesome, Until it Sold Out
By In the course of some twelve hundred words, Stephen Dreusner manages to:
1. Pine for a time when MTV really purported to speak for a generation of youth…
2. Point out that this time never existed…
3. Demand that MTV devote coverage to OWS…
4. Decry MTV’s coverage of OWS…
5. Imply that MTV’s motives may lean towards the commercial and exploitative…
6. Laud Beavis and Butthead as anti-commercial…
7. Unless maybe they are, in fact, commercial and corporate.
Really, the Weekly Standard could do much, much worse if it were interested in caricaturing progressive coverage of OWS.
