I Want My MTV by Craig Marks and Rob Tannenbaum
It is interesting the method used by the “authors” to document the network that used free videos as programming. They basically interviewed many people involved on all levels with MTV and assembled the answers into the book. The text is 95% edited quotes. Or at least I thought it was interesting in a ironic way until I saw the book Those Guys Have All the Fun: Inside the World of ESPN which is the same thing. Is this the new trend in non-fiction?
