Nielson: Television Viewing Is Up Among Teens

TV viewing is on the rise, continuing to increase despite competition, according to Nielson Media Research, which found a three-minute rise in total average time a household watched TV from 2005 to 2006.

  • At eight hours and 14 minutes a day, households are tuned in more than ever before.
  • On an individual level, the average amount of TV watched also increased three minutes a day, marking another high.
  • Teenagers, those assumed to be spending the most time with the web and iPods, have not abandoned TV just yet.
  • As a whole the age set (12-17) has increased its TV viewing, up five minutes, or 3%, for the full day compared to the 2004 to 2005 TV year.
