Newseum Closing

[L Verge]

I wonder if the public's observations of what the main stream press has devolved into contributed to this decision.

In this day when folks prefer to Google their history (if they are even interested), I suspect that distrust of the press has been one factor. However, it is an expensive museum to get in ($18 per person the last I heard), huge to fully tour in even one day, not little kid friendly. In a city where most of the museums are free, it has been a hard sell.

Note: It sits where Booth's favorite National Hotel once stood.
