Every child would love to have a television in their bedroom, but new research suggests it is bad for their health.

For every hour of television a child watches each day, they get seven fewer minutes sleep.

U.S. researchers found boys are particularly likely to miss out on sleep because of the presence of a television in their bedroom

"They also discovered that children from ethnic minorities were much more likely to sleep in a room with a television."

Minorities hardest hit, Eh?

Well, of course. Who cares if white boys lose sleep. They’re going to be slaves of the multicultis in a decade or so anyway.

Even worse, every hour of TV watched is a point off their IQ.

"They also discovered that children from ethnic minorities were much more likely to sleep in a room with a television."

Funny that they never explore why that is, summed up with "poor (or nonexistent) parenting skills."
