Last week, I posted (along with probably half the internet) about that AP/Isos poll that said one in four Americans wasn’t reading.
Now the Written Nerd offers a helpful rebuttal:
I’m going to repeat that, in case you missed it. The NEA declared that half of Americans had NOT read a book in 2002. AP/Ipsos declared that one in four Americans had NOT read a book in 2006. All the while, half of Americans DID read a book in 2002, and three quarters of Americans DID read a book in 2006.
Three-quarters is more than half.
