Explanation:
<u>Minow explained that in prime time</u> which comes in the evening, <u>out of total of 73 and a half hours available</u> for all the channels that ran in 1961, <u>59 hours were scheduled for movies, comedies quizzes and action adventures.</u>
By using this evidence, he is able to draw a conclusion that Television prime time is not about giving good information or being useful but being entertaining.
