DataTimes (Mahdalova & Skop)

We are a pair of journalists, Kateřina Mahdalová and Michal Škop. We focus on honest data-driven and contextual journalism: not only elections, polls, and forecasts, but also the broader context behind all the issues that matter. Education, healthcare, housing, justice, and much more — and, of course, politics, which shapes all of it. We work with public data and support media literacy. You’ll find explainers, in-depth analyses, and interviews here. From time to time, we also show “how it’s done” (charts, maps, data visualizations). We’ve been doing this work for quite a while.

We care deeply about democracy, freedom of speech, and critical thinking. And to be clear: lies and hatred are not opinions.
