Did you know that 67.9% of all statistics are made up?

Yeah, so is that number.

Statistics are very useful but they are also easily misunderstood. They're turning into fake news, and that's a real problem: bit.ly/2JBKYPa

#FridaysAtPROTO #MediaAdaptability Join us this Friday as we discuss the ways we can avoid being misled by statistics, with @johnraja @swagata_y @guneetnarula and @ivishiknew.

Welcome everyone to the live tweets from the PROTO-Agami meetup for folks working with data on law and justice. @AgamiHub #Data4Justice #FridaysAtPROTO @AgamiHub Judicial data can inform and transform the stories that the media can tell. Today, we can learn to increase the use of judicial data. We'll hear about how it has been used, and also discuss other ways to use it to tell stories and drive change. #Data4Justice #FridaysAtPROTO

A loud welcome to everyone this Friday at PROTO’s world headquarters. Today we explore the various ways in which journalism can do more to drive impact that keeps institutions accountable and sensitive to citizens' issues. #MediaCredibility We are only a few minutes late as @ameyann introduces the theme of the meetup, the speakers, and the @heyproto model of co-learning for solutions to the problems facing #civicmedia today. #MediaCredibility

In the middle of election madness, with news, "news", opinion, analysis and just plain shouting, let's stop and think about all the things that make up our identities in India, and how they affect the stories we tell: bit.ly/2ZdnXYA #HeyMediaIntersections Have you read this moving piece from @ShaliniNair13 about minor Bachhada girls who are forced into caste-sanctioned prostitution? bit.ly/30kyp12
