The following appeared in an article in a magazine for writers
“ A recent study showed that in a typical day’s conversation people make an average of 23 references to watching television and only 1 reference to reading fiction. This result suggests that, compared with the television industry, the publishing and bookselling industries are likely to decline in profitability. Therefore, people who wish to have careers as writers should acquire training and experience in writing for television rather than for print media. ... It is through books and print media that we get an insight into what our earlier generation was like. Television was non- existent then.
If writers shifted their attentions to just writing for the television industry and neglected the print media, our generation would not have anything to give our future generation. ...

Every other person today owns a television set or a computer, which gives him or her the latest information, but there is nothing comparable to a crisp newspaper with a cup of coffee in the morning.
