CMT, Country Music Television was the place to go to for country music videos, news and other fun stuff about country music and all things that were considered country. But now the channel has become a pariah. With artists pulling their videos and fans fleeing, change has to happen.
The change is in the form of firing the president of CMT and changing the way the channel does its business. From pulling the Jason Aldean video to featuring drag queens at its award show, there’s been a serious series of blunders.
The channel even stopped showing “The Dukes of Hazzard” because of the confederate flag controversy. But now, it’s all about to change. CMT is promising to go back to its roots, back to the people and the programming that made them endearing to country music fans all over America.
“It’s time” said Joseph Barron, head of marketing for CMT. “It’s time we return to what made us the best” when speaking of the firing of president of the network, San Jerdusky. The company is even moving out of New York City and back to Tennessee. Right outside of Nashville. It’s going to be right back to the roots.
The new headquarters will be located in Antioch, Tennessee, a small suburb of Nashville in a trailer park to re-identify with the CMT base. New president Stu Peters is excited for the changes. “We’re gonna be real rednecks here. Meth, broken down pick ups, rebel flags, incestuous relationships, cheap beer, just like our fan base. It’ll be great!”
Jason Aldean will be welcomed back along with other country artists with racist dog whistle songs, do it yourself trailer improvement shows, catalytic converter theft tips, how to seduce your cousin and a new revamped “Dukes of Hazzard” centered around the confederate flag and Daisy Duke’s unnatural relations with her cousins Bo and Luke and some geriatric fun with Uncle Jesse.
Country fans, the real country music fans will be delighted with these changes. They’ll be able to proudly watch CMT on stolen cable once again while cousin humping and not taking care of their kids or dogs, just like the old days. God bless America.
