They media does this shit all the time, and it aggravates me to no end. I don't care about percentages and "spikes", they are meaningless without some kind of context.I know this has been a thing for a while, but I hate the blatant manipulative bullshit of "space low numbers really far apart on the y-axis so the graph is a scary-looking upward spike."
Unfortunately the masses on this planet have the critical thinking skill of Joy Behar, and they fall for it without any argument or critique.
