I love this place. Some exhibits are entertaining, some are inspiring, some are powerful, some literally have left me in tears. My appreciation for the first amendment continues to find new levels of elevation by examining our past through the eyes and words of those who reported it. It's simply mind-boggling to consider that had it never been reported, we wouldn't know about it. That is an interesting concept considering the recent election. Considering Brexit. What is it that we're missing now, because the polls didn't reflect it, the press wasn't reporting it, the world at large wasn't seeing it, and yet here we are. Someday I can only hope future generations can come to this building and see where we were and why they are where they are, and hopefully, it is a bright and amazing future. No one is perfect. No nation. No ideal. However, if we can have unbiased, genuine, authentic, and original reporting, which I fear is becoming less predominant in our current generation, regardless of the imperfections, the truth will always be found. It is in that truth where we will see who we really are and what we are actually worth. Places like this are fundamental to the telling of history. I hope and pray organizations like the Newseum continue to thrive and provide a place for all to learn.
