Deleted Live 8 Post

For some reason, Blogger overwrote my post about MTV's coverage of the Live 8 music festival. Basically, I pointed out how retarded MTV was for promising to "cover" the landmark concert and then proceeding to show hardly any of the music on the air. In its place were numerous documentaries about the history of musicians and activism, mixed in with lame commentary about by VJs about the music, which you could hear faintly in the background. In a situation where MTV could have created quality programming simply by pointing a camera at the stage, they failed miserably.
