Graphic is good is you really need pictures. But plain old information goes better with text.
The hilarious thing about most human-computer interaction is when we use GUIs for imparting purely text information.
For example, on this HN page that I'm writing, and you're reading, the only graphical thing really is the orange bar across the top.

Actually, the world has evolved slightly as even the text is rich text-today. Many people like to use emojis in text, for example, HN is a rare one that doesn't support. There is even talk of support for cross-platform utf-8 emojis without the need for additional images, stylesheets, etc. Then there are other things like code syntax highlighting, formatted block quotes, bolds and italics, etc. which are like "deemed graphics".
