Spinning Statistics

Team Soc,
We are working on being devious with numbers. Not so we can abuse numbers but so we can recognize those who abuse them.

Here is the assignment:
  • Find a graph, chart, statement, etc. and analyze how the data was shaped/spun. Take the same data and reinterpret it in a contradictory or opposing manner.
  • Create an example of spin with averages.
  • Find an example of statistical spin in the current government shutdown. Describe how it is spin.
