The newspaper in question is Pakistan's English language "newspaper of record", which has wide readership.

For some reason, they rarely ever add any graphs or tables to financial articles, which I have never understood. Their readership is all college educated. One time I read an Op-Ed, where the author wrote something like: If you go to this gov webpage, and take the data and put it on excel, and plot this thing vs that thing, you will see X trend.

Why would they not just take the excel graph, clean it up and put it in their article?
