AFTER documenting the music scene for decades, the iconic MTV News website came to an end after going offline on Monday, June 24.
Upon trying to access the link MTV.com/news or MTVNews.com, netizens are automatically redirected to the main MTV website.

Former MTV News employee Patrick Hosken took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his displeasure over the news.
He wrote, “So, mtvnews.com no longer exists. Eight years of my life are gone without a trace. All because it didn’t fit some executives’ bottom lines. Infuriating is too small a word.”
Kurt Loder, a former Rolling Stone editor who is now a TV host, was MTV News’ first correspondent and the reason it rose to fame in the 1980s.
Up to now, the iconic MTV is still known and loved by people–not just from the older generation but also those belonging to the recent ones.
