From This Graph Is Disastrous for Print and Great for Facebook—or the Opposite! by Derek Thompson.
The article is worth reading but what I focused on was this graphic.
Where do people spend their time and focus their attention in terms of information absorption? Sight unseen, what weight would you place on the relative reliability of information from each of these sources? Print (newspapers, magazines, books), Radio, TV, Internet, and Mobile. Independent of value and reliability of information source, what does the relative intensity of use of each of these sources tell us? There is nothing inherently good or bad about any of these numbers but I must admit concern that the slowest, most contemplative forms of information purveyance (print) with the greatest opportunity for reflection is also the smallest segment.
