'Only 11 People' Responsible for Majority of 'Book Ban' Requests? - Truth or Fiction?




...A small number of people were responsible for most of the book challenges, The Post found. Individuals who filed 10 or more complaints were responsible for two-thirds of all challenges. In some cases, these serial filers relied on a network of volunteers gathered together under the aegis of conservative parents’ groups such as Moms for Liberty.
An archived copy of the Washington Post article contained a section labeled “The power of serial book challengers.” It described a review of more than a thousand “book challenges,” substantiating the “11 people” claim:

The majority of the 1,000-plus book challenges analyzed by The Post were filed by just 11 people.

Each of these people brought 10 or more challenges against books in their school district; one man filed 92 challenges. Together, these serial filers constituted 6 percent of all book challengers — but were responsible for 60 percent of all filings.
