Americans are watching 4 minutes per day more TV than they were a year ago, a new study says. What's driving the increase? All that breaking news. Viewing by young people held steady -- what with them being on that internet thing all the time -- with the increase coming from people over 35, apparently illustrating why the network news is full of ads for Cialis and arthritis medicine.

I like the internet better then TV, its much more entertaining. Ill watch the simpsons and the news and stuff but there is a lot of crap on TV. My dad got a nice HD TV and its nice for movies and the discovery channel but I would rather have a wicked awsome computer then a wicked awsome HD TV.

A couple of hours
I only watched a couple of hours of TV last year. The Dylan documentry and the Super Bowl. I only watched the Super Bowl because I was in Philly on business and knew I'd have to talk football with my clients.

Rolling News is not something you watch
... it's something that you leave playing in the background, while doing the housework or talking to family, or whatever, just in case something interesting happens.
I wonder whether the figures might not show a fall if they only counted the time that "viewers" were actually "viewing" their TV.

Sad.
I don't watch TV. I buy DVD movies, or I pirate them if I get tired at how expensive they are.
