Newseum Gives Visitors a Past to Present View of Journalism

 

The Newseum located at 555 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW in Washington, DC is an expensive tour stop for the average family.  Tickets cost $20 for an adult, $13 for children ages seven to twelve and $18 for senior citizens, (children 6 and under are free). If you want to spend the whole day exploring, plan on spending approximately $10 to $15 per person for food and drink and don’t forget to throw in the cost of parking.  Is the cost worth the visit?  Yes, if you consider seeing the 4-D movie, the experience of broadcasting behind a television camera, seeing the headline newspapers from 9-11 and part of the World Trade Center, the Berlin Wall, the Ethics Center, the Sports Theatre and the breathtaking views from the terrace.  BristowEnews.com recommends taking children, ages twelve and above to see the exhibits since the content includes graphic images.
