Not all journalism is words…

“‘…some time before 2000 we expected the web to take over with animated graphics and all,’ [Graphics editor Gert Nielsen] told dotJournalism. ‘But when it turned out it was next to impossible to earn money on the net, the editorial interest for the flashy infographics faded quickly because they’re quite expensive to produce.’ Infographics are often used to illustrate complex issues, such as the recent Mars landings, but fine detail is often better presented in print than on screen.”
