There's a pretty radical difference between the statements "I don't have cable" and "I don't even own a TV".
I know lots of people who spend an immensely unhealthy amount of time in front of TVs (even me from time to time, not judging), and few of them have a cable subscription.
Over 85% of the US is not on twitter. It's not at all comparable to television.
Only 36% pays for cable TV. Seems pretty comparable to me.

If anyone's curious, 98.4% of US households had television in the mid 90s (most likely the peak). In 1960 it was 90%.

That's a higher percentage of the population than those who voted for the winning candidate in the last presidential election.
I wouldn't say that's comparable to ~15%.

Over 60% uses Twitter in Japan, behind only to LINE and YouTube. Also comparable if English was not language of business.
Surely not. Twitter is a niche social networking site. It’s something like 1/6 the active user base of Facebook, which would be the better comparison.
This seems really out of touch tbh.
Not even close. Any given social network is not ubiquitous, socially.
Not really. More like the modern equivalent of "I don't watch Fox News."
