Would a logical person looking at the same situation be forced to draw the same conclusion? If so, then the situation is fact. If not, the situation is opinion. In this case, assume that you’re given the numbers of people reading literature for pleasure, just as the NEA saw them. Could you reasonably draw a different conclusion from those numbers?
