What is Data Journalism?

Data Journalism combines data, visual design and journalism to tell a relevant story.

It's all about the story, but in the digital age we now have exciting new ways to bring stories to life. It can be a data visualisation, an interactive graphic or other creative way of bringing the data to life.
