quote 21:29:07
Young people who have grown up with laptops in their hands instead of remote controls are opting not to buy TV sets when they graduate from college or enter the work force, at least not at first. Instead, they are subsisting on a diet of television shows and movies from the Internet.
Brian Stelter in the NY Times: Television Ownership Drops in U.S., Nielsen Reports.
“Subsisting”? Really? Is that the word that first came to mind? Maybe I missed the bit where television was necessary to maintain life.
Still, interesting statistic.
