Something for Everyone at the Newseum


First stop today - The Newseum. The tour guide had already got me excited to go I get to wander through six floors and learn about the history about news. I know some people find the news boring, but I have always enjoyed watching it and reading it. This museum isn't just about the news on TV, though. They have real newspapers from historic events. They even have had an exhibit based on the movie Anchorman.

As soon as you walk into the Newseum, everything looks modern and new with newspapers hanging all over the walls with bold headlines just waiting to be looked at. Two huge glass elevators bring you up to the 6th floor. Each room has something interesting. There is a September 11th section and Civil Rights Movement room full of articles. There was a very long line for a 4D movie about how the news started and how it was important for everyone to know what was going on during their time. I think everyone who made it to the movie enjoyed it because the seats moved and wind blew during intense scenes. The trip to the Newseum was a success.
