5 of 5This site provides a unique resource that allows viewers to compare viewpoints from across the globe and to gather news from far away places. The topics covered and the varied presentations are high quality and engaging visually. If a topic taught is on this website, use it for certain!
Description:
From the website: "The world's first interactive museum of news - the Newseum - opened in Arlington, Va., in 1997. Its mission was simple: to help the public and the news media understand one another better. "The Newseum also celebrates the value of a unique American notion - the First Amendment. The First Amendment - a covenant between the government and the people - assures that no law will suppress the people's right to a free press, to speak freely, to worship, to assemble in public or to petition the government for redress of grievances. By assuring a free flow of information, the First Amendment helps ensure that Americans remain forever free. We believe that visitors will come to the Newseum as tourists, but leave as supporters of the First Amendment and the vital role a free press plays in a free society. "The Newseum's content and exhibits are being designed to illustrate and elucidate the following core messages: The free press is a cornerstone of democracy. People have a need to know. Journalists have a right to tell. Finding the facts can be difficult. Reporting the story can be dangerous. Freedom includes the right to be outrageous. Responsibility includes the duty to be fair. News is history in the making. Journalists provide the first rough draft of history. A free press, at its best, reveals the truth."
Possible uses:
The Cyber Museum contains many varied exhibits related to past and present news coverage. Below the icons in the Cyber Museum, topics can be sorted by themes: Front pages, News History, International, Photojournalism, Editorial Cartoons and Games. View the front pages of newspapers from 428 countries to see how a topic is covered or if it is written about at all. These can be sorted alphabetically, by map (geography) and by region. Past pages are also archived. This site could provide a rich research resource if teachers find material relevant to curriculum. Video and audio clips are available for some of the history exhibits. Teachers can find lesson plans related to the First Amendment. Students can play the 'Newsmania' quiz to test their knowledge of current events and trivia. Other information is shared regarding the current construction of the Newseum building in Washington, D.C. and news events. This site honors the work journalists perform and the dangers the job can present.

The money will be used to sponsor the chanel handbags Private Wealth Management team, comprising a boat, several crew members and six swimmers who will participate in the 23rd annual Swim Nike Air Jordan the Sound. Each team is required to raise $7,500, which supports the foundation's cancer education, screening and prevention programs at low- or no-cost for the underinsured and uninsured. The event "has transformed into something bigger than expected," said Courtney Gucci Store, a client relationship manager at MBT Shoes Sale. Grabarek said all the auction items -- including Yankees tickets and high-end jewelry and Juicy Bags -- were donated, as was the use of the Black Duck. The band performed for no fee.
