Early 90s MTV and Greeks

I recall, in my early years (early 90s or so), when MTV used to show music videos, before they sold out, before it became all about pop, before it didn't just cater to tweeners, an episode of MTV news. It had happened just after some students rioted in some colleges, particularly Colorado/Colorado State. It was a report on how people were blaming the greeks for starting the riots.

What was so funny was that they actually gave the greeks a chance to speak against those claims, and actually reported on how Greeks were about more than just "binge drinking and partying"! They actually made a semi-reputable report (it still IS MTV) promoting the good things about us and not exploit the sterotypes.

Weird what 10+ years will do.

Anybody remember this? If I have any facts wrong, please correct me, I was still in my early teens at the time.

BTW, since I can't edit the title, I know I spelled Early wrong
