Study says young people watch less TV

December
29

A recent study found that millennials are watching less TV than other generations, which is no surprise and we clearly aren’t turning to good, old-fashioned books either. Instead, we are using countless other media outlets that are more instant than the tube.

Young Americans ages 14 to 25-year-olds watch 10.5 hours of TV a week, compared to 15.1 hours for Generation X (ages 26-42), 19.2 hours for baby boomers (43-61) and 21.5 hours for matures (62-75), according to Deloitte.

Millennials, however, are spending more time watching DVDs on a computer than any other group. They are also spending the most time with media—including video games, music and the Internet.
