'We should reserve the same scepticism for statistics as we would for facts or
quotes' #BBCStats http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/guidelines/editorialguidelines/pdfs/ReportingStatistics.pdf

them' #BBCStats http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/guidelines/editorialguidelines/pdfs/ReportingStatistics.pdf

'We shouldn’t always rely on press releases, but look beyond the headlines' #BBCStats http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/guidelines/editorialguidelines/pdfs/ReportingStatistics.pdf

Pleased to see new @BBC reporting guidelines for stats published - We @RoyalStatSoc were happy to provide input http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/guidelines/editorialguidelines/pdfs/ReportingStatistics.pdf
