A Walk through the White House

While it might be common to have seen the President or Press Secretary speaking in the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room in the White House, far fewer people get to see the rest of the Press Corps area in the West Wing.

Via this 360-degree video tour, the FIA Spark Grant's Rest of the Story team presents you with an opportunity to walk through that part of the White House in the footsteps of a journalist, starting in the West Wing basement's Press Corps office space, moving to where the Press Secretary regularly briefs the media, and ending in the kitchenette where journalists might grab some coffee, a snack, or a meal during the day. If you click and drag inside the video frame, you can look around as the walk proceeds.
