Motion Picture News was the leading film industry trade journal during the 1920s. Founded in 1908 as a counterweight to the dominant Moving Picture World, the News was the voice for the independent, non-Trust, producers. Later Motion Picture News expanded its coverage to the entire industry, supporting the independent exhibitor with objective film reviews, summaries of programs at theatres across the nation, activities of regional exchanges in the cities with regional exchanges, and excellent coverage of the coming of sound and screenings and stage shots at the major New York City theatres. -- David Pierce, 2013

Show the first one and you will show them regularly; your audiences will demand them. Most news films are a collection of pictured happenings of slight general and NO particular interest, gathered here and there by photographers who have had no training that would qualify them as judges of news values. The items which make up each film of the National News Weekly are selected by the editors of more than a score of BIG newspapers. One half of the film (500 feet) depicts happenings of general interest; the other half reproduces news events that have occurred in your city — selected by the editors of your favorite home town paper.
