According to Wikipedia: The U. S. has participated in cyclical, large-scale assessment programs undertaken by the National Assessment of Adult Literacy (NAAL) and sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) since 1992. The survey revealed that the literacy competence of about 40 million adults was limited to the lowest level, Level 1 which meant they could only understand the simplest written instructions.[3]
Could this have anything to do with the rise of the audiobook in the USA?
I much prefer to listen to radio, radio 4 in the UK. I can get it digitally in Spain (and anywhere where there is internet access).
Add me to the list of facebook haters
