There is a strong element of snobbery among those who read books and how they view everyone else. We all know it.

But the original article was all over the place and rambling.

We've argued here many times over things such as:
- What books are to be in the "canon" of "the classics" that "all" students should read
+ forever a hot potato
- Is listening to a book "reading"
- Is the practice of reading a book morally superior to watching tv shows?
- Are "genre" books for the "low brow".

It's like the article tried to take on every controversy in reading
