I think this is significant.

The MTV Awards show "once a ratings juggernaut for MTV, pulled in an average of just 5.77 million total viewers over its three hour telecast starting at 8 p.m., down 28% from the 8 million viewers it averaged last year, according to preliminary data from Nielsen Media Research. Just two years ago, the show brought in nearly double last night's audience-10.3 million viewers."

50% less audience in two years. 28% drop in one year. These are dramatic figures and extremely heartening. Kids are getting out of the tv watching habit, going on-line, where bias is clear and users have more control.

I turned on the tv once this weekend, to watch a few old Buffy episodes with company. I turn the computer off at night, after a last check of the news.

Thanks are in order for DC's safe return. It's a beautiful day.
