45% Will Watch Less TV If Strike Continues

Here at the Fat Canteen we’re the prowling hungry lions of the Web TV savannah, gleefully upping our antelope count on a daily basis and at serious risk of an antelopembolism. But sometimes we read oft quoted statistics on Web TV’s rising popularity that make us think statisticians deserve to get eaten too. I mean who makes up this sinewy meat?

‘Nearly half of Americans say they will watch less television if the writers’ strike continues, according to two polls released in the last week. And one of the polls, by Interpret, said 35 percent have already changed their TV viewing habits as a direct result of the strike. Reruns and reality shows, said respondents, will not suffice.

Meanwhile, Burst Media’s poll found that 25.6 percent of respondents expect to watch more online video as a result of the strike.

Lots more stats after the jump.’
