Finally, the Newseum in Washington, DC has recently unveiled a new exhibit that not only celebrates the milestone anniversary of Woodstock, but also a subject that is near and dear to our hearts – music journalism. The interactive museum’s Woodstock At 40: The Rise Of Music Journalism takes a look at the “moment when the news media first recognized music and entertainment as a cultural and commercial force,” and runs through the end of October.
