Thank you for this. As I suspected. The younger generations get their news from sources other than cable tv. We older folks are supporting the cable companies, which makes me wonder what will happen when we die off.

same way as the print media? Social media, streaming, internet sites take over totally? Unless cable can reinvent itself economically? I have both internet and a heavily discounted cable package, sail on from 2 yr or so deal, to deal. They mainly keep re-offering a variant. Is almost as if the real price is the "sale" price, how much do consumers chase "deals" in supermarkets etc? a LOT I figure. I watch a lot of MSNBC via internet cutaways, no ads, core material eg of the latest Rachel Maddow show or whatever. I also get Washington Post, Reuters via internet editions.
