Oh wow, that article is so bad.
>Uber drivers are accused of sexually assaulting or raping customers almost three times a month, according to new figures which have outraged rape campaigners.
I could point out that accusation is not proof of guilt, but that's not what's bothering me the most. My problem with this article is that no referential is provided : frequency of accusations of others cab services providers (we have a count, no frequency) ? total number of fares at Uber vs other cabs (is it more than a fifth ?) ? Or alleged sexual assaults in London for a month ?
Sometimes this bad journalism looks so deliberate...
- CamelCaseName 9y agoI think part of the problem is that these just occurred in 2016. In combination with Uber supposedly keeping information and not reporting assaults (according to the submitted article) it makes it very difficult to make a good comparison. Someone else asked how Uber assaults compare to the general population and I honestly can't find much apples-to-apples information.
