Someone talking about the future of a general interest magazine.

"You've herad scores of people say that the magazine outdid the newspapers in reporting the war. I say we have to keep on reporting the news mor excitingly than the newspapers...

"estar léido y escrebido"


Explanation:
La expresión "book larnin'" es usada de forma humorística imitando la manera de hablar de una persona con mínima o nula educación. Sería como el equivalente de decir en español "estar léido y escrebido" o algo parecido.

Buena suerte y saludos de Oso ¶:^)
