Please help me find data on how many hours people spend watching television each day in different countries.
Is there a website on this?
Is there a website on this?
Those numbers could be for how long the TV is on instead of actively watched. I don't see how anyone could actively watch TV for 9 hours a day and managed to hold down a job. I do see how it could be on for 9 hours a day with a family member sitting down to watch it for an hour or two at a time.
