This is some generalisation, misguided as well. I've seen hundreds of people on trains and buses reading all manner of books, magazines and papers over the years.
I didn't know this but it says a lot. My main gripe is the writing is at the level of a 5 year old, empty and no articles seem longer than two sentences. It seems its target audience is people with an attention disorder.
