It's interesting to see the National Post using infographics, such as they recently did for a story on a young boy that committed suicide as the result of school bullying.
The graphic isn't as fancy as it could be (basically it's a lot of circles all over the place) but it's still a great value add.
With many graphic designers unemployed or under employed, now is a great time for the media (and corporations) to augment their communications with infographics that significantly increase the resonance of their messaging.
People are visual by nature and presenting statistics in graphical form generates far more interest in the reader/viewer than simply embedding a litany of stats in table form or as text.
