Mark Twain once said, 'There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.'

The reason why he placed statistics into its own category is because it is possible to use numbers to misrepresent the truth, distort reality, or outright lie.

Learn more about how you can lie with statistics on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
