The Freedom Forum is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting free speech, a free press, and the First Amendment rights in the United States. Founded in 1991, it aims to foster a better understanding of these fundamental freedoms through education, research, and advocacy. The organization often engages in discussions and initiatives that highlight the importance of a free society. In addition to its advocacy work, the Freedom Forum operates the Newseum, a museum focused on the history of journalism and the role of the media in democracy. The Newseum features exhibits that celebrate the First Amendment and educate visitors about the significance of a free press in society.
