© Keith Vander Linden, 1999 Lying graphics cheapen the graphical art everywhere … When a chart on television lies, it lies millions of times over; when a New York Times chart lies, it lies 900,000 times over to a great many important and influential readers. - Edward Tufte

© Keith Vander Linden, 1999 Using Graphics Properly Let the graphic values/change accurately depict the data values/change. Clearly label all relevant details. Don’t graphically mix dissimilar elements. Use the right type of graph.
