3 News Articles/Reports Utilizing Data Tables and Charts
1) The New York Times

In these charts the news is trying to show what kind of people are in the lower, middle, and upper classes. I like the dark black lines showing the different age groups and type of education in the midst of all the households in each particular class section. The dark black lines help you to see each thing clearly.
2) U.S. News
This site uses a line chart to show the stress levels of people from the year 2000-2014. They show stress levels on people who make less than $50,000 and for people who make $50,000 or more. I think their chart does show what they are trying to get across.
3) Channel 4 News
This site uses a bar graph to show what percentage of men, women, and all adults combined live for 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years after having cancer. The graph could use a heading to tell what the numbers to the left of the bar graph stand for, but it is a really nice clear graph other than that.
