A display featuring all the photographs that have won a Pulitzer Prize since 1942 is one of the permanent exhibits at the Newseum, the newest museum in the nation's capital. Situated on Pennsylvania Avenue near the U.S. Capitol, visitors will be able to explore the history of news, including 35,000 historic newspaper front pages dating back nearly 500 years, to reporter Bob Woodward's notes as he unraveled the Watergate scandal, to comedian Stephen Colbert's first script about 'truthiness.' The Newseum opens to the public April 11th.
