Walked by the place plenty of times but never felt the need to check it out. The place charges $25 per person admission. No thanks. That building is prime real estate in DC.

So these people think anyone cares about their propaganda throughout the years? The only way it’s useful if you’re researching a book about how bias and political aspirations changed world events over time!

[MountainWalker]

I’ve been. It wasn’t worth it, and I regret patronizing a museum to an industry that has become so spectacularly corrupt. I hope they bulldoze it.

Around 2012, I paid the $25 entry fee, and walked through.

I felt silly afterwards. There’s really nothing there of consequence. I did have a cup of coffee up on the roof area but it’s a total waste of money and time. They would be better off selling the property and just disbanding the whole museum entirely.

I'm mildly curious if the have an "editor" display and show at one time in history news outlets used to have them but now they have been replaced by spellcheck programs.

Heh. Journalism died shortly after Obama’s first election. It is only fitting that the museum of a dead profession also dies.

[OpusatFR]

Same here. Also the monstrosity purporting to be an African American museum.

Great idea for a museum = Cool Stuff Found in Garbage Dumps

Garbage found in journalism? Not so much.

Today good people in our government are releasing declassified texts and other incredible information showing obvious crimes and collusion at the highest levels of our secret agencies.

The press is coordinating and trying to stop the release of this information and/or moderating. They are not journalists, they are political party!

LOL!

Plenty of dead malls it could relocate to.

I went there a few years ago and took my grandsons. We really enjoyed it. They got to pick the background of which broadcast (weather, news etc) they wanted to be a commentator for, handed a microphone and read off a teleprompter and were filmed. Then they were shown the film and were able to download it if they wished. Lots of laughs and fun.

My favorite exhibit was the award winning photographs.

I'm really into history and could have spent much more time there than we did. I'm sorry to hear that they're closing. I think the entry price has hurt them a lot.

Ted Turner should buy all the crap and move it to storage in Atlanta. If he really cares...

[sphinx]

Trump should buy it and turn it into an extension of the Trump Hotel.

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

Does the Museum house the Fake Newscaster Hall of Fame?

[henkster]

Buckead’s famous FR post is on display there. Seriously. I saw it last year and knew what it was from 20 feet away.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

I’ve been there. An interesting leftist indoctrination center.
It will be good news when they shut down.

[Intolerant in NJ]

What is it - a shrine to the wonderfulness of journalists? - if so they could move all of the really substantial exhibits to an abandoned phone booth somewhere.....
