Many people worry about the effects of television on family life in the United States In
the average home, the TV is on more than six hours a day But do people always keep their
mind on the programs? And do people who watch TV really spend less time on other
free-time activities?
A study by some New York researchers found out that watching TV is the most popular
free-time activity in the United States More than 70% of Americans say that they watch TV
every day, or almost every day The second most popular activity is reading the newspaper
Listening to music at home is third Talking on the phone to friends and relatives is fourth
Exercising or jogging is fifth
Surprisingly, television does not seem to take time away from free-time activities at
home Six out of ten people said that when the TV is on, they seldom pay attention to it
During a typical television program, people may eat dinner, do housework, read a
newspaper or magazine, or talk or read to their children The TV becomes "background
music."
The researchers learned that in some ways Americans are very traditional Teenagers
and single people may be interested in activities and excitement outside the home However,
eight out of ten Americans like to spend their free time at home with family members and
