A journalism museum set to open next month in Washington has received a $25-million donation from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

The Newseum says the grant is its largest donation to date. In return for the gift, the Newseum will name two broadcast studios and a conference center in honor of the Knight brothers. One of the studios will be the home of the ABC program “This Week With George Stephanopoulos.”

The $450-million Newseum is set to open April 11.
