From today's Sunday Times, another statistical graphic that will make Edward Tufte proud:
The Ebb and Flow of Movies: Box Office Receipts 1986-2007
At least they get something right.
For those unfamiliar with "The Leonardo da Vinci of Data," I highly recommend all four of Dr Tufte's books: The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, Envisioning Information, Visual Explanations, and Beautiful Evidence. Even if you are not concerned with statistical graphics and other forms of information visualization, I bet you will find his work beautiful, if not enlightening.
