MTV News has fully pulled down its website, rendering over two decades' worth of content unavailable. The now-unavailable content includes decades of music journalism, comprising thousands of articles and interviews with countless major artists, dating back to the site's launch in 1996. This move comes after Paramount Global shut down MTV News in 2023. The elimination of the MTV News archive has erased significant pieces of music history, including early K-pop stories and other important historical information across various genres. Additionally, content from Film dot com has also been eliminated, and some works now only exist on the Wayback Machine.

MTV News goes into the memory hole. https://t.co/XZa2TAKluq
Countless blogs have gone dark, DatPiff is gone, and now MTV News (that goes back over 25 years and has important historical info across all genres) has pulled the plug. “The internet is forever” is a myth https://t.co/ejuD7j2LVf

This is almost certainly because MTV didn't really "die." It just slowly degraded into a channel that endlessly played reruns of Ridiculousness. If it had just shuttered suddenly, it would probably be discussed more as the death of an iconic music brand. https://t.co/zBSvttn3XO https://t.co/kT4nCOyBdM
It blows my mind how minor the death of MTV has turned out to be. Cultural colossus into the 2010s, then sorta just disappeared without anyone really mourning it all that much, or even noticing tbh https://t.co/BphVxc9MFk
Well, sure, why not? Go ahead and twist the knife into pop culture journalism a little more. MTV News Website Goes Dark, Archives Pulled Offline https://t.co/RVbr3YmIsh

sickening (derogatory) to see the entire @mtvnews archive wiped from the internet. decades of music history gone...including some very early k-pop stories.
Everything published at MTV News (or Film dot com) has been eliminated. My oral history of GALAXY QUEST lives only at the Wayback Machine archive now. https://t.co/oQrhrfK9Np https://t.co/bxMg6maZeI
