The importance of data simplification

– “lying”, highlighting or simplification
– Misunderstanding works both ways

Lesser of two evils: practical problems
– Colour usage: associations with colour
– Zooming of graphs: start from 0?
– Cherry picking data: Highlighting or cherry picking?
– Data-oversimplification/complexity: one for all, full

– Making the news in the way you want
