[ddj] [Q] Difference between CAR and DJ

Mon May 20 08:35:46 UTC 2013

I'd second this suggestion, Marcelo. Liliana Bounegru's short chapter on
"Data Journalism in Perspective" touches on many of the issues discussed in
this thread: Adrian Holovaty, Computer Assisted Reporting in the 1950s,
Precision Journalism in the 1970s, the relationship between CAR and DDJ,
and so on. Definitely worth a quick look. ;-)
