Set to open in late 2007, the vast, 600,000-square-foot new Newseum will be a far larger, snazzier, and a more central incarnation of Washington's original museum of news, journalism, and the First Amendment, which opened in Arlington in 1997 and closed in 2002. Visitors will enter into the Great Hall of news, a 90-foot-high media-saturated atrium, overlooked by a giant screen showing breaking news and a news zipper. There are galleries devoted to news history, broadcast and online news, global news, and photojournalism. After looking through exhibits displaying 500 years of the history of news, visitors can try their hand at writing on deadline or wrestling with a teleprompter in the interactive newsroom. In a space removed from the newsroom-like bustle of the rest of the museum will be a Journalists' Memorial, honoring more than 1,600 reporters and editors who lost their lives while covering news.
