Newseum 
Museums
The Newseum is an interactive museum dedicated to free expression and the five freedoms of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution - the free exercise of religion, speech, the press, peaceful assembly, and petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It traces the evolution of print and electronic communication from the earliest days of the United States to the present day and offers a peak into the future. It has 7 levels of interesting and informative displays, 15 theaters, 2 broadcast studios, a newsroom, and galleries. The Berlin Wall Gallery on Level 2 exhibits the largest display of sections of the Berlin Wall outside Germany. Level 3 has exhibitions on the history of popular comics such as Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes. The News Corporation News History Gallery on Level 5 is the museum's largest gallery, tracing the history of newsgathering over 500 years across various themes such as war reporting, women in media and landmark news. The Front Pages Gallery on Level 6 presents daily front pages of more than 80 international newspapers. Also of note is the glass memorial to slain journalists, located above the ground floor.
