Workshop: Data Journalism-Quoctrung Bui, Graphics Editor, New York Times

Quoctrung Bui is a graphics editor at the New York Times‘s The Upshot. He has written stories on insurance, inequality, zoning, taxes, and other topics. He started his career in journalism at NPR’s Planet Money after a stint at the Federal Reserve Board.

Bui will discuss with faculty how to share their work with the media (such as at The Upshot) and how to do it without diluting their ideas. He will also talk about which ideas tend to play better to a general audience—more than you think!—and how visualizations can communicate those ideas compellingly.
