How not to display data in graphs

A few months ago, I wrote about how I discovered a website which helps people to communicate with numbers - although most of the time, the site gives examples of how not to communicate. I wrote that I came across an example of a graph whose bars had no relationship whatsoever with the data that they represented.

Finally that graph has been published here along with a few other examples of how not to display data in graphs. Fittingly, the graph was published on 1st April.
