Episode description

MaryJo Webster is the data editor for the Minneapolis Star Tribune. She talks with It's All Journalism producer Michael O'Connell about her aversion to math before learning about data journalism, how data can be a better story source than interview a person, and how entering a query into a database can help pull information to tell the real stories of a community.
