An exhibit at the Newseum—the portmanteau, the folly—recently riled Unabomber Ted Kaczynski, who was not impressed by the showcasing of his former Montana cabin, the scene of his final capture by the FBI. Kaczynski, currently imprisoned in federal Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado, spotted an ad for the exhibit, “G-Men and Journalists” in the Washington Post and wrote an angry letter:

Since the advertisement states that the cabin is ‘FROM FBI VAULT,’ it is clear that the government is responsible for the public exhibition of the cabin. This has obvious relevance to the victims’ objection to publicity connected with the Unabom case.

I hope Kacyznski doesn’t find out about museum’s site’s interactive cabin.
