William Randolph Hearst began producing nev;sreels in 19l'<; domestic nev/sreel production ceased in 1967. The library exists today mainly for the in-house production needs of King Features. Footage is occasionally sold to outside producers, but this is at best a sideline activity and does not appear to be particularly encouraged. The Hearst library has little or no footage from its historic activities prior to 1920; from 1923 to 1929, Hearst produced International Newsreel. Today only about 250,000 feet survives from that era. Hearst produced HearstMetrotone News and later News of the Day, making it the oldest American newsreel company. During the 1350 's Hearst purchased footage from Telenews under 1 icense.
