Access to informationin Norway and USA generally considered good (due to freedom of information legislation)
Barriers to easy data access● fees ● lacking competencies for exporting data at public offices● the form data is often delivered (e.g. as PDF)● lack of legal legal resources to get access to data that is denied
to journalists in the first place(6; 14)

Selecting dataBecause data journalists don’t have much time in the newsroom, they prefer easy-accessible data, e.g. datasets from public bodies.
They are very cautious when it comes to work with data from companies or private sources.

Methods● Journalists use statistical programs (e.g. MySQL, Excel, Access,
SPSS, Google Docs, Maps, Google Refine, Google Fusion Tables etc.)
● Statistical methods and packages including cluster, network & regression analysis
--> Journalists are quite cautious with it, since they consider this outside of their field of expertise.

● The goal of DDJ activities is by definition the [very accurate]
journalistic publication
● Publication of data sources and raw data following open data
principles is mentioned too as an integral part of DDJ. (6, 17, Coddington, 2014)

Backgrounds of data journalists● Data journalists are appx. 5 years younger than the average
age of German journalists
● All of them have started a university program, 80% have also finished it
● There is no generalizable “data journalism” career path. Background is mostly either social science or informatics.
● Backgrounds include programming, design, typography, info graphics, usability, databases, Web and journalism
● USA: dominance of National Institute for Computer-Assisted Reporting (NICAR)
