The article delves into the role of casual data visualizations in communicating data to the general public. It focuses on how practitioners make design decisions based on their target audiences and the media channels they use. The authors use a semi-structured interview study to explore this area. They find that while practitioners often use broad definitions of their target audience, they also stress the importance of knowing their readers for their design decisions. The study also discusses the evaluation and feedback mechanisms used by these practitioners.
