* ''VideoGame/NotForBroadcast'': At the start of the game, the National Nightly News is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: ''the news''. After Advance comes into power, however, it begins to report less on meaningful news and more on irrelevant human-interest stories. [[spoiler:It is revealed in "The Heatwave" that this is directly the result of pressure from Advance, causing the lead anchor, Jeremy Donaldson, to have a nervous breakdown. After the events of "[[NukeEm Liberation Night]]", Channel One, the station that airs the news, is forced into public ownership, making the news fully subject to government censorship before it devolves into an inane talk show, devested even of its full name and reduced simply to "NNN".]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxdfWn4Sbnc This episode]] of ''WebVideo/{{Jimquisition}}'', while discussing the prevalence of this trope in online media (specifically games journalism outlets covering ''Series/GameOfThrones'', a TV series with little connection to video games beyond overlap in its geek fandom), brings up Creator/{{MTV}} as a comparison in the second half of the episode. He finds it appropriate that the very first video they played was "Video Killed the Radio Star" by Music/TheBuggles given how the same process later happened to them when the internet wound up killing the video star, and says that the Network Decay of MTV and other cable networks (also bringing up the History Channel and TLC) was a natural consequence of cable television growing bigger and facing new competition online; niche channels like MTV had to diversify their content in order to hold onto their viewers against their competitors, even if it meant forgetting the original mission of the network.
