Find five different examples of data visualization. These can be from any source on any topic (sports data, political data, a mix of topics, etc.).

For each visualization, answer the following questions:

• Who made this visualization?
• What data did they use to make it?
• What do you see in the visualization (e.g. what are the axes, scale, visual elements, etc.)?
• What is the main argument the visualization is trying to make?
• What information from the visualization makes you think that that is the argument?
• In your opinion, is the visualization truthful? Why or why not?
• How could you improve the visualization?

Submit your answers as either a word document or pdf. Your submission should consist of each visualization followed by your responses regarding that image.
