USA | That's the same percentage of people who (supposedly) still have dialup, but no one caters to that class.
Why should this be any different just because it's TV? |

Well, we could at least get a crummy, snowy reception of Jeopardy if Uncle Bill, with a metal plate in his head, sat on the love seat near the window. It was something, just like dial up. Better than nothing at all, perhaps, or maybe losing TV is the best thing that will ever happen. With no TV, one might expect to see increasing levels of reading comprehension in those areas. |
