Arizona’s "newseum" opens
A microphone used by Edward R. Murrow in 1938, a Phoenix Gazette street sales box–with a copy of the last issue of the paper from 1997–and other news-worthy items are among the artifacts on display at the Marguerite and Jack Clifford Gallery. The gallery is the new museum debuting this week at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Open to the public, the gallery (located on the second floor) also showcases items and information about the school’s namesake, Walter Cronkite, and his long career in broadcasting.
