Newseum

Washington D.C.'s Newseum is a museum of news, whose mission is to educate the public about the value of a free press in a free society and tells the stories of the world's important events in unique and engaging ways.

You don't have to visit the museum to take advantage of some of its resources. The museum's web site allows you to access Today's Front Pages from newspapers in 70 countries. Just put your mouse on a city anywhere in the world and the newspaper headlines pop up. Double click and the page gets larger and you can read the entire paper.

There is also a front-page archive chronicling events of historical significance.
