After working for the FiveThirtyEight, Bank of England, and the Economist Intelligence Unit, as of 2016 she works for The Guardian US.[2][3] She is considered one of the most influential people in the young field of data journalism.[4][5] She sees the importance of data journalism in the fact that politicians cannot get away with false claims anymore.[6] Her work covers many diverse interests and she has written about racial dating preferences[7] to research on Wikipedia.[8] In an article for the New York Times she has argued for a more empirical approach to economics.[9] On October 23, 2015 she announced on her "Dear Mona" column that she was leaving fivethirtyeight.[10]
