Not sure if that is good or bad that so few people watch news. I do not know if the rest are looking for their info on line or just do not care at all about world events. Either way, it's a really small small segment of society.

Exactly, TV news has a very small (and very old) audience. I honestly do not remember the last time I watched a TV news program (not counting the many, many hotel lobbies where I eat about half of my breakfasts).
