If you are a news junkie, a history buff, or anybody with an appreciation of current events, you will like this museum. Try out the interactive newscast options. It's not as easy as you think!
So much to see in this attraction. A real education of how media works and effects our lives. Great gift store too.
This was my first visit to the Newseum since it moved to D.C. There was a special exhibit of Jackie Kennedy photos which I really liked. The exhibit of all the Pulitzer Prize photos was awesome! I wish we had another day to visit the Newseum and take our time. This is a place for adults, I believe. Children may...

What informative and beautifully displayed exhibits. Just seeing all the Pulitzer Prize winning photos was worth the visit. There is an entry fee, but it is good for 2 days...you could easily spend 1 1/2 days there. Pieces of the Berlin Wall, part of the antenna that was attached to the top of the World Trade Center building, recovered artifacts...

Plan to spend most of a day in this fabulous place. We loved the complex look at news - how it is generated, how it affects people and societies, and the ability to review news, all past to present. The interactive areas are terrific, the commemorative areas are well done, the architecture is fascinating and the lunch was great!
Highly recommend a stop here - 6 floors of media compilation; newspapers, radio, comics, TV and videos - covers events of the past century - chronological presentation brings back memories of events in our lifetime - some special presentations like the "Kennedys" and the "FBI" were especially informative - The annual winning Pulitzer Photo awards section we thought was the...

A great place for kids and adults to learn about media and journalism. Lots of interactive displays, lots of fascinating info. Kids love it. Adults love it. It's not a 'look but...

Newseum is very unique in DC - it's one of the only museums you have to pay for - but it's totally worth the time and money (and your pass is good for two days if you don't get to everything and want to come back). Six floors in all with some truly fascinating exhibits and artifacts. The largest piece...

This news museum is devoted to news from a historical perspective. We highly recommend it even if you don't watch the news on a routine basis. It has a tremendous about news events going back in time - even ancient times.
Some of the exhibits can be depressing such as the news covering the 9/11 attacks in NYC but overall...
