Comments on: Newseum Starts Installation Of Electronic “Today’s Front Pages” http://pqliving.com/newseum-starts-installation-of-electronic-todays-front-pages/ Downtown Washington DC/Penn Quarter news and urban commentary Tue, 01 May 2012 22:08:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: DCRay http://pqliving.com/newseum-starts-installation-of-electronic-todays-front-pages/comment-page-1/#comment-8055 DCRay Fri, 11 Jan 2008 17:10:54 +0000 http://pqliving.com/?p=1228#comment-8055 I was lucky enough to get a tour of the Newseum yesterday, and wow, what a great destination it will be! I got clarification on the the daily news front page displays on the street (as well as in the museum)... the Newseum receives the front pages electronically, but will print them out and be placed in the displays. They're aiming for a April opening date. It's quite an amazing place! I can't wait! I was lucky enough to get a tour of the Newseum yesterday, and wow, what a great destination it will be!

It was really cool to walk up and see what was going on in bloomington, indiana or goleta, california, or at least what their newsapers thought was important. Interesting to see how many newspapers will use the same AP photo on their front pages on the same day.

I can easily see some skate rats trying to do 50-50 grinds on them. I gotta wonder how durable those screens are. I can easily see some skate rats trying to do 50-50 grinds on them.
