"MTV

Music Television
, is an
American
cable television channel
based in
New York City
that launched on August 1, 1981. The original purpose of the channel was to play
music videos

.
Today, MTV primarily broadcasts a variety of
reality
and scripted
television programs
targeted at
adolescents
and
young adults
.
MTV has spawned numerous
sister channels in the U.S. and affiliated channels internationally
, some of which have gone independent. MTV's influence on its audience, including issues related to
censorship
and
social activism
, has been a subject of debate for years."
