Some have criticised MTV News for its liberal slant and slow response to report on Hurricane Katrina. Correspondent Sway Calloway has been spoofed on Doggy Fizzle Televizzle by Snoop Dogg. While it has won numerous awards for its journalism, including Peabody and Emmy awards, some contend that MTV News is not a true news source given its focus on music. | |||||||
