Internet Archive Blogs: “When MTVNews.com went offline in late June, Internet users were quick to discover that some (but sadly, not all) of the site had been archived in the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine. While you can no longer browse MTV News directly on the web, the archived pages are available via the Wayback Machine, starting with the first crawl of the site on July 5, 1997. The same is true for CMT (Country Music Television) News, which was first crawled by the Internet Archive on January 10, 2002. In response to patron requests, our engineers have created new search indexes for each site:

• Search more than 470,000 pages from MTV News (here’s a sample search for Peter Gabriel): https://web.archive.org/mtv.com/search/%22Peter%20Gabriel%22
• Search more than 70,000 pages from CMT News (here’s a sample search for Dolly Parton): https://web.archive.org/cmt.com/search/%22Dolly%20Parton%22
