TV news graphics

Illogical, statistically flawed and pointlessly bad information graphics are everywhere and TV is one of the worst offenders. Shiny computer graphics conceal flawed and oversimplified data in a slick presentation. English satirist Chris Morris nails this trend with this graphic from his Animals episode of the Brass Eye spoof documentary.
