Find an example of statistics being used in
the media and identify what community is effected by the decisions made based
on the statistics.
You may use any news source, magazine, newspaper, or
televised commercial.
For each example:
1. Print a copy or provide a link to the example.
2. Write a short synopsis of what you think the graphic
or statistic is trying to illustrate and how it affects that community.
3. Identify any portion of the graphic or provided
statistic that you think may be misleading or inaccurate. How can this
misrepresentation lead to disenfranchisement of certain groups of people.
4) Identify the population being sampled in the
study/statistics and what sampling methods might have been used to collect the
data in the study.
