---- Statistical data published in newspapers

To quote the OP:

When statistical data is published in the newspapers...

There is no moral argument over what is right and wrong here, this is not about honesty: published facts are in the public domain.

How and why do you think it's in the newspaper in the first place? Because both the organisation(s) compiling the data and those printing it want the facts made public!

75% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

Glad someone got my joke :-)
