Believe it or not, young people watch less television than other groups, according to a study from Deloitte LLP, No. 16 on The 2008 DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity® list.
The study, titled "The State of the Media Democracy," found that millennials, or Generation Y, watched the fewest hours of television per week. They averaged only 10.5 hours per week.
In comparison, Generation X watched 15.1 hours, baby boomers watched 19.2 hours and seniors watched 21.5 hours.
While the numbers may seem odd for a generation that is notorious for its technological savvy, the study found that millennials spent the most amount of time watching DVDs on the computer and also the most time playing video games, listening to music and surfing the Internet.
