Historic Events–World–Streaming Media
Newsplayer
This fee-based service from the U.K. allows users to view historic World events from the past 100 years on the web (keyword search and browse) using streaming video (Microsoft Media Player). A FREE preview is available. How the site describes itself, “Now you can re-live the events of the past hundred years, witness them at first hand as they happened. Newsplayer brings you video footage of music, fashion, art, lifestyle, sport, crime, royalty, weather, showbiz, wildlife, transport, science and war. All live and uncut. At the click of the mouse you can summon up Stalin to Stallone, Hitler to Hitchcock, Eden to Elvis, Churchill to Chaplin.”

Btw, if you’re interested in viewing and listening to current news and public affairs, please stop by the Current Awareness Resources via Streaming Audio & Video compilation.
