I've been to DC before, but I had never been to the Newseum. It's one of the few museums in DC that charges for entrance but it was worth it. Basically, it contains the history of...well... the news. How it has been conveyed to people, the various instruments of news recording, etc. It has an exhibit with the "best photos from news articles/magazines" over the duration of a certain period of time, but we're going to see that tomorrow.
I've always been fascinated with the news (especially the photographic recording aspect) and so this place is pretty awesome. The exhibits ranged from fashion to war/conflict and everything in between. Definitely worth seeing if you are in the DC area.
