Output:

• Associated Press produce 20 million words of news, daily.
• Reuters' daily news output is 2.5 million words.
• The Press Association produce 150,000 words of copy daily.
• There's 10 million, million minutes of telephony per year in the US (Scientific American, 1998) [thanks Dan Hon]. Which is roughly 2 hours per person per day, which sounds high. (Roughly 1 million, million words spoken daily, assuming 50 words a minute in conversation, and only voice calls.)

I'm looking for comparisons, different media types. Books, the www, spoken.
