Listening To Audiobooks Increased Illiteracy

One more time for the people in the fucking back.

Audiobooks do not count as reading!

You might as well be saying watching television counts as reading, because it’s from a script. Or you watched the movie adaption, meaning you read the book for the aforementioned reason (read Fact Of Life: Audiobooks Don’t Count As Reading). Then you wonder why the illiteracy rate has risen, more than half of the population can’t comprehend beyond a sixth grade level. Gee wonder why, could the rise of audiobooks for the first time be a factor? YES!

Reading and listening are TWO DIFFERENT SKILL, two different verbs, that use two different body parts. Stop being lazy, pick up a fucking book and actually read it. Being illiterate for no reason isn’t cute. Via: Shannasaurus_Rex_Reads
