I'm sorry, but these strike me as the epitome of chartjunk (see Tufte's Visual Display of Quantitative Information for context). Whatever actual data is in there is hidden in a sea of bogus pseudo-data.

On the other hand, if somebody were looking for people to create misleading and intellectually dishonest infographics then these would clearly be good resumes to look out for.
