Found footage for use in the 1981 documentary “Rostenkowski,” a portrait of the House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dan Rostenkowski, a powerful figure in Chicago (and national) politics. Assorted clips taped off TV news for reporting on Rostenkowski’s decision to become chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee. There are many timecode breaks and blank segments between clips. There is also a lot of [unrelated to this documentary] footage of Mayor Jane Byrne’s husband Jay McMullen, who had recently decided to leave his job at the Chicago Sun-Times.
This tape begins in the middle of the program “Newsmakers,” where Walter Jacobson is interviewing Dan Rostenkowski. After this program ends, the tape records news reports from several different Chicago stations (2, 5, & 7) on police sweeps at Cabrini Green following an outbreak of violence. While the police announced the raids a success, many residents questioned the move as being for show.

The second of three election specials from the award winning series, The 90’s. This episode is called “THE CONVENTION” and features moments from the Democratic National Convention in New York and the Republican National Convention in Houston in 1992. The producers tend to stay away from the regular news type footage and find the human interactions and the moments when the politicians are off their guard.
