'Berlin Wall: The Virtual Reality Experience'

The NBC News Interactive Newsroom is a very popular feature of the Newseum. The 7,000-square-foot newsroom is set up to allow visitors to be filmed against an appropriate backdrop while playing the part of a TV reporter. The broadcast then appears on the monitor above the booth for all to see. There are also many consoles where you can play one of their games, such as Newsmania (which I always used to enjoy), Be a Photographer, Race for your Rights and such.

I subsequently looked at my discarded pictures, and the sign for this says "Berlin Wall: The Virtual Reality Experience -- Bringing Newseum artifacts to life."

She does appear a bit awkward!

her stance does look awkward...perhaps it has to do with the moments spent as a virtual celebrity...
