New Info On Childhood Obesity and TV

Some really intersting new news regarding childhood obesity and TV watching. The good news from us old PBS types is that they said, "non-commercial viewing, including watching DVDs or educational television programming, had no significant association with obesity."

Also, "according to the authors, the findings strongly suggest that steering children away from commercial television may be effective in reducing childhood obesity, given that food is the most commonly advertised product on children's television and the fact that almost 90 percent of children begin watching television regularly before the age of 2. "

I guess the question is, does anybody, other than academics care?
