I don't know a single person who owns one that's under 32" anymore.
At least in my world. I love movies and like to have them on in the background and I do that a lot. And it's nice for sports. I know other people who use them for all sorts of things anymore, their computers, vids, making their own stuff. But the main media, no. A lot of that isn't because I'm a better person, its' that I have always been working nights, so never got into that prime time stuff that feeds most of the media. I never got into watching the evening news because I wasn't home at that time. Simple as that.
However, my parents were very anti-TV (for their own reasons) and I didn't grow up watching it, so that habit never developed. My kids were raised without it (we had one, it had a couple of VCRs on it, and the game system, no broadcast/cable) because I very specifically was extremely concerned about two things: 1) I didn't want them to grow up with a huge catalog of manufactured desires and stereotypes in their heads 2) I wanted all their memories to be real, not fabrications - that the things they 'know' they know because they were part of it, not because someone else created a visualization of it for them that they only 'saw' from a removed stand-point. But I was a weird parent. They were not just my kids, they were my little experiment too.
There is a certain danger in giving up on msm because those people tend to get their information from "alternative" websites which often presents conspiracies etc as the absolute thruth.
I think the danger comes in when you compare the difference between getting your news pumped into you via TV, and reading it. Reading allows time for reflection, checking, verification, and contemplation, which give you a very different end product than just having it streamed into your brain. Reading also allows for comparison between different sources too, while most people who get their news from TV get it from one perspective only, and it's constantly the same perspective.
