    Is it possible there's just not enough data to have an interesting data journalism website under current web production conditions?

    @Chanders If you replace "data" in that Q with any other form of journalism, it's clear that the issue is not the material but the approach.

    @greglinch I see the argument, but not sure if I agree. What if there is something about "data" that lends itself to slowness?

    @Chanders Also depends on "data journalism" definition. Regardless of defntn, I think it requires certain care, but not necessarily slowness

    @Chanders What would be interesting to study is why and how fundamentally flawed examples of data journalism end up being published.

        @Chanders Insufficient time to get right data, check data or source? Journalist or editor inexperienced w data? No editor at all?

        @Chanders If I were starting or working at an org with such a focus, I'd have some kind of internal peer review process/smell test for ideas
