As analysts, we conduct analysis on behalf of the business to (hopefully) provide them with clear and objective information to help with making decisions. We use visualizations of data and, when we're really hitting our stride, we even tell data stories. So, how does that compare to mainstream journalism and the stories they tell, especially when there is data that can be visualized in support of the story or the analysis? There could be no better guest than Philip Bump, long-time columnist for The Washington Post, author of the How to Read This Chart weekly newsletter, and author of a soon-to-be-published book about the baby boom generation!
