MTV Live 8 Coverage

I have to agree with these people saying that the Live 8 coverage on MTV/VH1 was an absolute joke. All they did was talk about stuff and had commercials like crazy. They should never have cut off any performances with a commercial. They should have only cut away when the next band was getting ready or something. And the commercial breaks seemed really long too but that is par for the course at MTV.

The inane banter was especially bad because they cut into the performances as well. So we ended up with MC Lyte or that Indian guy talking about some stupid thing or another while there is a band singing in the background. That is unpardonable IMO. I just wanted to make them shut up for a minute so we could listen the music in the background. MTV/VH1 should be ashamed of themselves.
