Amidst the ceaseless ridiculous that is April Fool’s Day on the internet, it’s often a relief to see a genuine prank. NPR had just that in store for its Facebook fans Tuesday morning.
The news corporation posted an article on its site with an image of a bookshelf and the headline, “Why Doesn’t America Read Anymore?”
Despite the request in the article, Facebook fans of the public broadcasting station responded in droves – to express disgust over the nation’s lack of reading, or defend their reading habits.
I guess some of us will never learn.
