My dad always said, "Numbers Never Lie, but Liars can Number!"
What he meant, with that, was you can take data, and choose to exclude things that negate your Hypothesis, if you are unethical, or work for some popular media channels!!
Polls are often twisted, because of how the questions are asked, and who uses that data, to support their AGENDA!! We see it with things like Gun Control, Immigration, and Elections!!

hahahahahaha, I LOVE some of your questions! For me, I think it really depends on the type and quantity of data to be expressed. Some situations you need a good ol' table, others the pie-chart, yet others clearly a scatter-plot is the most appropriate visual expression of your data.

Short answer: It's data-dependent.

I went for the pie because we use them often at work. They also work well to project data about what or who is contributing to a major chunk of the parameter being assessed.

Different types of graphs are intended to represent different types of data, so my preference depends on what I'm doing with the information. Charts are a good all-purpose route.
