WASHINGTON, D.C.-- In response to the newly released GfK Ownership and Trend Report that found a sizeable increase in over-the-air TV households, the following statement can be attributed to NAB Executive Vice President of Communications Dennis Wharton:
“The GfK survey demonstrates once again the enduring value of local and network broadcast television. It's particularly noteworthy that millennials are now more reliant on broadcast TV than any age group. Clearly, the Internet has had a major impact on how Americans receive program content, but GfK confirms that broadcast television remains remarkably resilient and growing in popularity."
