Abstract

Data journalism has become a stable trend in the development of the global media system. The article is devoted to the key competencies that a data journalist should possess. Examples of the foreign and Russian publications prepared on the basis of data analysis are considered. Special attention is paid to the training of data journalists. The system of journalistic education is not ready to fully meet the challenges of the media market: we can safely say that there are very few educational programs on data journalism in Russia.
