I found a great video clip about visualizing data. David McCandless makes some great points about the media, environmentalism, and politics. He does a great job of combining math with art to create something meaningful and informative which puts current events into perspective.
The other thing I like about the video clip is that he demonstrates how easy it is to deceive people using data and statistics.

Well, this is interesting. I always think that visuals are a great way to enhance math lessons and material.
