(CNW) Canadians are so attached to their television that
they're even taking it to bed with them, according to a recent
survey conducted by Angus Reid Strategies on behalf of Samsung
Electronics Canada.
While the family room still reigns supreme as the most popular
room to watch television (98 percent), the master bedroom is
quickly becoming a new battleground for the remote with 58
percent of Canadians citing they have televisions in their
bedrooms.
Perhaps even more surprisingly, almost one-fifth of Canadians
admit to having televisions in their children's bedrooms as
well as in their home offices. As well, the study found
Canadians would rather watch news programming (36 percent) over
dramas (24 percent) and comedies (12 percent).
Ninety-eight per cent of Canadians have at least one
working  television in their home More than 80 percent of
Canadian households own one to three televisions.
