You need to compare like with like when looking at statistics. The article is about US TV. The figure you say I quoted will have come from a linked article - I would need to have that in front of me to comment on it.

Edit: This is likely to be the article you were referring to, which is talking about UK, not US audiences.

Sky have until 2027/8 with the current orbital position. I don’t see 2019 being the year of change.
That goes without saying, and I certainly did not indicate that satellite transmission would end soon. The beginning of the end is the phrase I used. I would imagine satellite viewers are good for at least another 20 years!
