ТЕКСТ ДЛЯ АУДІЮВАННЯ
TEST 22. THE SECOND TERM
Music Television (MTV) is a cable television network, the first network to broadcast music videos regularly. The network was founded in 1981 with investments from such companies as Warner Communications and American Express. MTV’s combination of music videos, youthful video jockeys, commentary, promotion of special rock concerts, and news and documentaries about bands and performers established the network’s popularity with youthful viewers, and it became a leading promoter of new rock music and rock musicians. Music videos for both audio recordings and some motion picture
soundtracks are often made with the MTV viewer market in mind. MTV’s overseas offices make the network’s programming available in Europe, Asia, Central and South America, and Africa.
After MTV’s programming changed to include more heavy metal and rap music, MTV Networks launched a second network, Video Hits 1 (VH-1), in 1985. VH-1 features more popular music than MTV.
MTV Networks also owns Nickelodeon, a cable channel showing children’s and family programmes.
