Is there any difference between a TV and a monitor in regard to input latency?

Is there any difference between a TV and a monitor in regard to input latency (for high-speed online games such as fighting games, sports simulators, and FPS) when connected to a PS/Xbox via HDMI cable? If there is, can it realistically affect gaming performance?
Question from user Serge Rykovski at gaming.stackexchange.com.
Answer:
Regardless of your output device or means, TVs were never designed with low input lag in mind.
As you can see from this study TV latency varies from 15ms to 100ms and that is borderline unacceptable for a fast paced game.
In comparison pretty much every gaming monitor's selling point is 1ms, 2ms, 3ms .
