The media represents data in many ways, sometimes in a misrepresented manner so that their point can be made more "convincing" to the viewer. Find a minimum of 3 examples of data being represented in this manner. For each example, give a link to the site/representation and answer the following questions:
1. Where did you find this data/what company or news agency is using it?
2. What data is the example representing? Be specific, use the labels on your axes as help if you need it.
3. What makes the data misleading?
4. Why would this agency use this representation?
5. What does the data really show?
