"you can't tell me that animal planet, the discovery channel, and the history channel is full of lies. Give me a break!"

Where is this claim supported in the article? The article makes no claim about the quality of television content. Nor does the article claim that "everything you watch is junk." Rather it says that people surveyed described TV as junk (except for their favorite shows). It takes further argument to move from that to the claim that "TV is junk", and the author of this study has NOT made that claim.
