The statistic presents results of a worldwide survey on social media and TV abstinence carried out in January 2012. 69 percent of respondents from the G-8 countries declared they'd rather give up social networking than watching TV.
The original question posed by the source was: "Which would you rather do?". The respondents were given two answer options: "Give up social networking" or "Give up TV".
