Figures are rounded to the nearest minute. Estimates of average time spent with media are based on the total US adult ... population according to the US Census Bureau 2010 release, not the number of users of each medium.
Methodology
Estimates are based on the analysis of estimates from other research firms, consumer media consumption trends, device adoption trends, company reports, primary research, and interviews.
