Jorge A. Caballero, MD (jorgecaballero.eth). (2022, January 10). đ§”/ I just spoke with two journalists about data that shows how the U.S. healthcare system is collapsing before our eyes. The million dollar question during both interviews was, âWhat else could we be doing right now?â The answer: Flatten the hospitalization curve. Now.

A fairly comprehensive list of problems and limitations that are often encountered with data as well as suggestions about who should be responsible for fixing them (from a journalistic perspective).
-
More journalistic outlets should be publishing data explainers about where their data and analysis come from so that readers can double check it.

you can then use âSign In with Googleâ to access the publisherâs products, but Google does the billing, keeps your payment method secure, and makes it easy for you to manage your subscriptions all in one place. Â
I immediately wonder who owns my related subscription data? Is the publisher only seeing me as a lumped Google proxy or do they get may name, email address, credit card information, and other details?
How will publishers be able (or not) to contact me? What effect will this have on potential customer retention?

Methodology To determine the link between heat and income in U.S. cities, NPR used NASA satellite imagery and U.S. Census American Community Survey data. An open-source computer program developed by NPR downloaded median household income data for census tracts in the 100 most populated American cities, as well as geographic boundaries for census tracts. NPR combined these data with TIGER/Line shapefiles of the cities.
This is an excellent example of data journalism.

Data journalism produced by two of the nationâs most prestigious news organizations â The New York Times and The Washington Post â has lacked transparency, often failing to explain the methods journalists or others used to collect or analyze the data on which the articles were based, a new study finds. In addition, the news outlets usually did not provide the public with access to that data
While this is a worthwhile topic, I would like to see more exploration of data journalism in the 99.99999 percent of news organizations that are NOT the New York Times or the Washington Post and don't have the resources to publish so many data stories despite the desperate need for them across the nation. Also, why no digital news outlets included?
-
Worse yet, it wouldnât surprise me if we saw more unethical people publish data as a strategic communication tool, because they know people tend to believe numbers more than personal stories. Thatâs why itâs so important to have that training on information literacy and methodology.â
Like the way unethical people use statistics in general? This should be a concern, especially as government data, long considered the gold standard of data, undergoes attacks that would skew the data toward political ends. (see the census 2020)
-
fall short of the ideal of data journalism
Is this the ideal of data journalism? Where is this ideal spelled out, and is there any sign that the NYT and WaPo have agreed to abide by this ideal?

La ventaja de tĂ©rminos neutralizantes como "datos" es que permiten convocar pĂșblicos distintos, sin pensar en su condiciĂłn de profesional o amateur, o la disciplina particular desde la que se vinculan a los datos. Esta por ejemplo, es una ventaja que se aprecia en eventos locales, como "Datos y Guaros", si bien tambiĂ©n hay que atravesar las diferencias entre las formas de actuar y comprender de cada uno de los lugares desde donde se proviene.

First, FOIA provided accessible tools to put abstract ideas into practice. Everyday citizens started to attach various political notions to these activities. Second, information flowed into a journalistic ecosystem that was prepared to process and interpret it for everyday citizens. Information obtained through FOIA was being interpreted in stories that changed public opinion (Leff etal., 1986). Third, ability for individuals to request information led to alternate uses for activ-ists, public interest groups, and non-profit organizations.
Interesante ver cĂłmo se conectan el periodismo y el activismo. Una necesidad de dicha conexiĂłn ya habĂa sido establecida en la entrada sobre los PanamĂĄ Papers.

Readers are thus encouraged to examine and critique the model. If they disagree, they can modify it into a competing model with their own preferred assumptions, and use it to argue for their position. Model-driven material can be used as grounds for an informed debate about assumptions and tradeoffs. Modeling leads naturally from the particular to the general. Instead of seeing an individual proposal as âright or wrongâ, âbad or goodâ, people can see it as one point in a large space of possibilities. By exploring the model, they come to understand the landscape of that space, and are in a position to invent better ideas for all the proposals to come. Model-driven material can serve as a kind of enhanced imagination.
