Newseum to feature Helen Thomas' sweater

Trying to garner any public interest in the new $435 million museum set to open in October, the Newseum has previewed some of its nearly 600 items that will be on display. The Yeas & Nays boys have listed some of the very influential and historical - though definitely not stylish - wares to be featured:

• The red sweater Helen Thomas wore during a 2006 presidential press conference when President George W. Bush, after a long hiatus, finally called on the UPI columnist.
• Slippers worn by Ana Marie Cox when she edited the Web site Wonkette.com.
• The vest worn by ABC’s Bob Woodruff when he was injured by a roadside bomb in Iraq in 2006.

Now I know I am going to spend $20 bucks to see that! (Yeah, I am not joking, when the Newseum opens it will be the most expensive museum in D.C.) What are they thinking over there?
