Quick notes, top 4 quotes IMHO from Nate Silver’s awesome keynote lunch speech:
“Too often the respiration of a statistic shuts down the critical thinking from a reporter”
“Just as they ask good questions of their sources, journalists should ask good questions of the data”
“You can train research techniques and writing skill, but do you have that critical thinking ability?”
“In the online news space, it’s all about differentiation and not about volume”
