News is the most effective medium of mass communication. The news that is closest to the people in a democratic state is only for the people. The news is that the friend of the people whether in the vicinity of the country or abroad benefit by providing information on everything. People walking without news means being immersed in darkness. It can be called the source of light of society. This is why Rolf Dobblli says "News is to the mind what sugar is to the body."
So let's make a platform of the thing that is so closely associated with people where people and news correspondence will be celebrated, people will be able to get acquainted with every part of the news in more detail. Which is not just a museum whose every wall will talk about the past, present, future. Which is the news museum, museum for people, where people and museum complement each other.

Why do we need a news museum?

Democracy is a system governed entirely by the people where the people have the freedom to speak the right to know the right information or for the people to think freely.
According to Katharine Graham- "Democracy depends on information circulating freely in society."
Thomas Jefferson says"Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press and that cannot be limited without being lost."
Thomas Jefferson says"Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press and that cannot be limited without being lost."
Then it can be said how important free press is for a democratic nation. Since news is for the people to tell the truth to the people. But in this 21 century, the news is not always what is seen it has to go deeper for reviling the truth. The problem that is appearing in the current era is the Confirmation biases. To get rid of this we have to enter the center or core of information then we can judge.
So News Museum we need which will act as an information center. The importance of the news museum in protecting democracy is immense.
We see, hear, or read the news and in the news museum, we can realize the moment of that news with our own conscience.
The goal of a news museum is not just to know the truth but to make people more informative more informed so that they have the courage to think independently

Spreading the news is like a spider web, so the building mass is spread around a center. Centrally there is a public plaza that represents a sign of interaction. Since people are the main force, building mass has been kept down, form domination has been reduced. The mass has been placed in such a way that a welcoming plaza is created by merging with the surrounding walking access, view, contextual connection. Some public stages have been created for public free thought, free speech also public conferences for discussing public affairs. Some parts of the are above and most of the side is below the ground which represents that people have to go deep into every news and explore.
The center plaza represents three more lighted circles that represent every news have centers within the center. The permanent gallery will digitally connect with the flow of news. The circle shapes come through various means which are universal shape circle has been brought to the people.
