History The Newsmaker Committee was established in 1973 to serve as a forum for people, events, and organizations that are in the news. The Committee was originally set up to accommodate speakers who could not speak at luncheons due to scheduling conflicts. Newsmakers also gave a special venue for many visiting foreign diplomats and heads of state who were not candidates for luncheon speeches. Originally the committee was called the Newsmaker Breakfast Committee and held press conferences at 9am after a full breakfast, the idea being to give reporters a good story early in the day. Breakfasts were dropped due to the expense and to add flexibility. As the programs grew the Committee began holding conferences at all times during the day and evening Monday through Fridays and renaming themselves the Newsmaker Committee.

After dropping the meals as part of the newsmaker format, the committee structured the events as press conferences allowing reporters to cover the events just like a regular press conference. Any media covering the events are asked to sign in. These sheets, however, are not turned over to the archives. All newsmakers are recorded in audio only format. With a few exceptions, no video is shot for these events. Arrangement All electronic media and paper records are arranged chronologically by series. Series 1 contains the documents of the record group, series 2 contains the audio collections, and series 3 contains video collections. New additions to this record group are added at the end of each year. Series 1: Documents Collection Scope and Content Note There are very little paper records to accommodate the vast holdings of audio recordings done by the Newsmaker Committee. The records that were created contain member lists, transcripts of events (only a limited number of events), and media advisories. Every Newsmaker presentation is recorded and kept as public record in the Archives. Most of this record group are audio recordings.
