    why dont major newspapers just hire in-house statisticians or data scientists to deal with such things surely the large ones could afford it and they could tell you things like "these numbers are lies" some of them even know how to codehttps://twitter.com/generativist/status/1227798934300442624 …

    Idk why but watching this particular form of mass-observed, real-time fluctuations of uncertainty makes me see the impossibility if traditional media’s task real clearly, at least for a moment. pic.twitter.com/ZOPSKEooJS

        Because there is no real reason for them to do so, and some reasons not to do so :(

        They don't care if the numbers are right robot. It's not about being accurate and I know you are smart enough to know that.

        This is key. The old thing of journalist access vs telling the truth. Same problem auditors and quality consultants have: too strict (truthful) and you don't get hired. Too loose? Ineffective. Even rock climbing gyms struggle with accessibility vs cred. A kind of economics.pic.twitter.com/oILuGLNQCL

        I mostly agree with "do more statistics" but also I think the problem its worse than that in that I think people want not merely objective news but news that is authoritative and certain... Which is to say, people want other people to satisfy their unsatisfiable problems.

        I'd like media to just do a sniff test. All media is biased one way or the other and they'll reward that in staff. I'd rather have objective facts or a simple "we don't know." People have to stop rewarding biased reporting. And stop trusting habitual liars. #WeMustChange
