In order to deliver a true story and because information is more widely available, and data skills are one of the few remaining ways for journalists to establish their value in that environment.
Moreover data is becoming a very important source of both news and the business case for media organisations.

Data is useful and dangerous at the same time.
You can use the same data sets to show to completely different angles to a story.
All responsible journalists should have a very strong grip on analysing and using data to create stories.
I wouldnt shy away from recommending them to take a statistics 101 class.
It will really help.
