I had the opportunity to visit the Newseum (www.Newseum.com), in Washington, DC, a 250,000-square-foot museum of news that offers visitors an experience that blends five centuries of news history with up-to-the-second technology and hands-on exhibits. As a self-professed ‘news junkie’, I spent hours wandering through exhibits, learning how the business of gathering news has moved pen and paper to online blogs and live video feeds. We live in a society of “instant news” – a story that used to take days to write now takes just a few hours. And as newsrooms shrink, reporters are covering multiple assignments, often struggling to make a deadline.
