Newseum - Chapter 10: Journalists Memorial

One of the final exhibits is a memorial to journalists who have died in the line of their work or because of their vocation.

The bottom portion of the wall highlights the journalists who died in 2011.

An adjacent multi-story exterior window is covered with the names of the martyred journalists listed chronologically by nation of citizenship.

You'll notice just right of center at the bottom at the end of 2003, the final three names of journalists killed were from the United States.
