4. Percent of households
in America that have TV's is between 98-99%. Not hard to believe. At my mother's house where a sister and nephew live there are three people and five TV sets.

I'm trying to counter that. Haven't had TV in over a decade.


"Everybody’s got values . . . The thing that frightens me is the way that an eroding public school system . . . and television on all over the place is leading to a steady dumbing down of the American public and a corrosion of basic critical thinking in the population."
-- Jamie Raskin, American University law professor, November 2004 on the Democracy Now! radio program
