The data is not beautiful.
The data is mired by shitty photoshop textures and false antiquing.
Also not sure what it gained by being a bar graph, when a simple table would have done just as well and been more compact.
It would be even better presented as a matrix or similar so we can see which news sources overlap on a single juror.
News from TikTok? What the actual fuck?
People in New York read the new York times? Shocked, absolutely flabbergasted I will sarcastically claim to be.
That one Juror that is watching all of them should really be up to date on the subject. 🤣
At first glance it would seem like lots of NYT readers would be bad news for Trump but there’s also some moron who reads the Daily Mail and the NY Post. Could be hung jury.
This visualization would be better if it showed, for each juror, what their data sources were.
Clearly there are some jurors who have more than 1 news source. But it’s not clear what the distribution is. It’s possible that the NY Post / Daily Mail / X-Twitter / TikTok news reader is one person. Or it’s possible that each NY Times reader is reading one of those sources “to see the other side.”
A better visualization would be a table with each row being a news source and each column being a juror. Each cell of the table would be checked if the juror used that news source.
