B. There were very few channels, so each provided a variety of programming.

In the 1950s, television was still a relatively new technology and there were only a few channels available. As a result, these channels had to cater to a wide variety of interests and demographics, making it unlikely that a channel dedicated solely to music like MTV could have been developed at that time.
