This report is chock full of stats...

Which Craig struggles to understand.

Can't wait to see how Bert spins them, as they run counter to his
fabricated stats...

We've seen all of this already. One thing, just like Craig does, they mention
cord cutters but not cord shavers. Cord shaving is a much bigger phenomenon.

Next, they talk about "streaming to a PC." What about the limited-use boxes?
What about mobile devices? What about streaming to TV set via a PC? What about
TV content being streamed to a TV set? We have already dug deep into these
ambiguities, which this article does not do. And we all know how Craig prefers
vague generalities.

And the funniest part of all of this? Craig missed the punch line:

"From 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., TV accounts for at least half of all media use."

I explained to Craig that it was likely that Internet streaming now accounts
for 50% or more of daily video consumption? I guess he missed it.
