MTV's VMA's Rating Numbers Down From Last Year

Womp. Womp.
MTV‘s VMA‘s struggled to make par with the ridiculously high standards it has set for itself in the past.
Even though it was the top draw on cable television last night, the awards ceremony still lost HALF of its audience from last year and pulled in 6.1 million and earned a 2.8 rating.
Compare that with last year’s record 12.4 million viewers and it is clear how big of a drop those numbers are.
Maybe next year they will keep it on a Sunday instead of the Thursday they scheduled it for this year.
