The CMT Music Awards, which have been running in various forms since the 1960s, are to premiere live on CBS in 2022. In the latest example of corporate synergy, the broadcast network will become the home of the event, which has awarded artists such as Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift in recent years. The move gives CBS another live awards ceremony; despite falling numbers across awards events, they are generally a boon for live ratings.
