TL;DR Newseum is closing and I’m sad. Also: The media is not the enemy; learn how to distinguish fake from fact and support your local newspaper. I came to D.C. for my first real visit in 2014, for the sole purpose of visiting Newseum with a fellow journalism-obsessed friend/former LHU Eagle Eye co-editor (miss you, @lynds.hew). 📰 We spent two days geeking out *hard* through six floors of media history. I was so enamored with the place that I took hundreds of photos, so that I could catch up later on all the things I didn’t have time to read. 🤓 The Pulitzer-winning photo gallery, the 9/11 exhibit, and the memorial wall were all emotionally overwhelming. I was almost a year into my first full-time newspaper job at the time and left feeling so incredibly inspired. Five years later, I’m no longer a reporter. I don’t hate what I’m doing now, of course (how could I? 🐶💙), but I’ve certainly lost my way a bit. And this beautiful testament to the first amendment is closing its doors, NOW, when we need a place like this more than ever to show the public the true purpose and importance of a free press. Needless to say, my goodbye visit was bittersweet.
