I once met a very famous literary critic and he told me that he never reads anything that is not published by a reputed publishing house. And I thought that might be the reason why is so smart. He does not waste his time with garbage, he only takes the best.

There's a difference between The New York Times and USA Today. What you read builds your education and your manners. Why not take the best? Or at least something better.
