Yawn...
Designers have been saying this for years. I expect they will say it for many more years to come.
Your crappy little, small business, save-a-dollar, sole traders will always go for a quick solution. Larger companies and business will always have an inhouse designer or go to an agency.
Your jobs are safe.

Oh, of course. I didn't mean that our jobs weren't safe. It's just a bastardization of yet another creative industry on a mass cultural scale...I'm just curious if the show is just going to have these kids sitting at their computers for hours?

The way I see it, anything I'd be bidding for or would consider working on would be out of reach of the casual designer. I remain unconcerned.

would you rather be working a drive-thru or perhaps doing oil changes?...
... getting overly philosophical about this is silly... be happy that you get to do something creative and get monetarily awarded for it.

they must have found out how much we whine and bitch about our bosses.

Yeah, while i was gettin' my design eju-muh-kayshun on MTV was bridled as one of the most hip, cutting edge places for all things design related - from motion to identity to interactive and web. Well guess what? Just becaues there's a demand for this type of garbage doesn't make it anything more than just that - absolute garbage. Besides, consider the audience. Most of the people who watch MTV(or it's affiliates) know next to nothing about design - think pre-teens / adolescents with nothing better to do than to let media brain wash their uninformed brains. It hurts my brain to consider the role MTV plays in the fragile world of design.... ok.. gonna stop ranting.
- well said.doesnotexist
