This is one of the most interesting museums in DC, but keep in mind that this one isn't free. Still, the visit is worth the price of admission. Exhibits on the history of news, interesting videos, and an opportunity to try your hand at newscasting make this one of our favorite museums in DC. Also check out the views of the Capitol from the roof.
