Hi all,
Oxfam published last year a report based on thorough data analysis about income inequality. You can find articles about it in many media outlets, including:
Oxfam: 85 richest people as wealthy as poorest half of the world

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26613682

World's 85 richest people have as much as poorest 3.5 billion: Oxfam warns Davos of ‘pernicious impact’ of the widening wealth gap

>From Poverty to Power » Anatomy of a killer fact: the world’s 85 richest people own as much as the poorest 3.5 billion

http://policy-practice.oxfam.org.uk/blog/2014/01/working-for-the-few

This has huge media impact and has informed to a degree the political debate in UK at least and quite a few high profile interviews in US. Next week there will be a follow up to that report. Also, this made "inequality" a key discussion topic in Davos - last year and this year.
