Newseum

The mission of the Newseum, located in Washington, D.C., is to increase public understanding of the importance of a free press and the First Amendment. Visitors experience the story of news, the role of a free press in major events in history, and how the core freedoms of the First Amendment — religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition — apply to their lives.

Using this resource, students can see how the front pages of thousands of newspapers from across the country and globe differ.  With a NewseumED account, teachers (and students) can access past dates that are considered of historical significance. The account is free.
