What's the point?

What does Viacom think they're accomplishing by showing their stupid awards shows on multiple channels? All they're doing is pissing off people looking for something to watch.

The MTV VMA's were the latest awards to be on multiple channels - MTV, VH-1, Comedy Central, BET, and TVLAND. A couple months ago the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards were on Nick and TVLAND. The TVLAND Awards were on TVLAND and Nick-at-Nite, and the TVLAND originals air simultaneous on TVLAND and Nick-at-Nite. One of CMT's award shows was on another Viacom network as well.
 
MTV VMAs and Miley Cyrus Trashed as ‘Preposterous,’ ‘Toxic’ by Parents Television Council

There was never really a chance that the Parents Television Council was going to enjoy the MTV Video Music Awards, but boy oh boy, did they hate Sunday’s show.

“MTV had an opportunity to use its powerful VMA platform to stir a young audience to aspire to something positive and uplifting,” PTC president Tim Winter said on Monday. “Instead they chose to perpetuate blatant sexualization — much of it self-inflicted by the artists — and to celebrate the use of illegal drugs.”

“MTV rated the content of the program as appropriate for a child as young as 14, though most parents of teens that age would find such a content rating preposterous,” he continued. “In the end, the network succeeded in what it wanted to do: stir up controversy without regard to its impact on an entertainment environment that is increasingly toxic for children.”
