Newseum Blacks Out Front Pages to Commemorate Fallen Journalists

What does a world #WithoutNews look like?

Every newspaper front page displayed by the Newseum this morning was identical: a blacked out front, headlined with a #WithoutNews hashtag and the following text: “Today, the Newseum pauses to reflect on the sacrifice of the journalists who died reporting the news in 2014. Join us in raising awareness of the threats to journalists around the world.”

Fourteen of the  journalists who died in 2014 were honored by the Newseum this morning in the annual memorial rededication ceremony of its Journalists Memorial.
