Internet vs TV: Internet users

Internet vs TV: Internet users watch less televsion - 4.8 hours on average a week in the USA. And long time users of the Net watch 5.8 hours less. No kidding. What's there to watch on television anyway? UCLA survey also said the most popular activities are email and instant messenging but that 60% use it as a source of news - more than television, radio, newspapers and magazines. But one third said they only believe what they read online half of the time.
