Right. I strongly suspect there's a correlation (and in fact causation) between lots of video watching and lower reading level.
I don't know if there are low-level brain effects, but I think once a child realizes that one can watch a movie or read the same book, the easier and more visual option is going to look more attractive. Reading is fairly hard work at first...
