Legacy
The March of Dimes, a fundraising organization that still exists, was named by Eddie Cantor in 1937 as a play on The March of Time. Because Franklin D. Roosevelt founded the March of Dimes, originally called the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, a dime was chosen to honor him after his death.
The March of Time series was satirized in Orson Welles's film Citizen Kane (1941) with the News on the March segment showing the life and funeral of the fictional Charles Foster Kane.
The Canadian documentary series The World in Action (1942–1945) was patterned after The March of Time newsreel series.
