I surpised 3 in 5 do. Man pre 2000 I read so much more than the average person who I felt did not even read one book a year (most mostly just watched tv) and now im the one who never reads books. I mean granted most of my online activity is reading.

7 Minutes

Average time Americans aged 15 and older spend reading per day, compared to over 7 hours spent on screens daily.

That's kind of insane. What do people spend those 7h on if not reading? Is it all video content?

I'm shocked that literacy is high enough to account for these numbers.
