With a name intended for a T-Shirt line, Rotting Television, was created to push the envelope and embrace what is not usually seen on television. Being a “Trend Setter since a Bed Wetterâ€, Manny Toro boasts this same mantra for Rotting Television. Upon moving to New York City with 40 bucks in his pocket, he found that he did not have the budget to do much or enjoy “New York City†as it was portrayed on TV. Over the next few months, he realized there was an underlying code and culture in New York City. He began to hit many “free†entertainment industry parties, networking with artists, exhibits, concerts and places even some New Yorkers didn’t know about.
With this new adventure at hand, he began a blog and named it after his favorite non-existent t-shirt line. Once the first draft was up and running, blogging came easy. Within a year of realizing that people actually read his blog, Manny decided to take the site seriously. Enlisting Jessica Voltaire and Aimi Latore as part of the team. They created Rotting Television (RTV); the lifestyle website.
With the official launch in August of 2009, the team finally created a voice of the independent artist, in all respects with a hint of guilty pleasures. Focusing on all forms of entertainment, style, girls, art, design, and technology, Rotting Television sets trends that penetrate the masses months later. Quality content delivered quickly and quirky is what RTV does.
We hope you enjoy our little site and welcome any question or concerns you may possess. And remember “Don’t Watch TV….Watch RTVâ€!!!!
