White Spectrum - Comments Visualization The BBC has created a unique way to visualize comments on central question. In this case the question was, (Are white working class people ingored in Britain?). As they state, "spectrum is a different way of presenting a BBC News Have Your Say debate. It allows you to investigate the dabate around BBC 2's White Season by associating different comments by emotion, location and similarity". They state in the FAQ that the data is not an opinion poll and is not statistically valid, however, it is a visual way to get an impression of the debate. I enjoyed playing with the filters and clicking on the comments. The key was easy to understand and always there when you need it. The only thing I wish the visualization had was a way to tell which comments I had already clicked on while using any filter. Overall, very well done and engaging.
