FiveThirtyEight articles on the Internet Archive
The site fivethirtyeightindex.com aggregates links to FiveThirtyEight articles stored on the Internet Archive, providing a searchable index of their content. This initiative addresses the potential loss of FiveThirtyEight's work after its parent company, Disney, shut down the site in 2023. The archive includes articles from 2008 onward, covering politics, sports, and science. By leveraging the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, the index ensures that interactive graphics and data visualizations are preserved. This effort is crucial for researchers and journalists who rely on FiveThirtyEight's data-driven reporting.
