Shocking news from China

Well, OK, not so shocking: Researchers have found that people in China think TV is boring.

Isn't this dog-bites-man sort of stuff? What would be shocking is if someone, somewhere thought TV was interesting.

Ominously for advertisers, 85% of Chinese stop watching TV during commercial breaks. More than half change the channel, while rest of them do housework, eat, chat or use the bathroom.

Again, not exactly a shock, especially since commercial breaks in China can last twenty minutes.
