Dr Manhattan? Watchmen?

Right guys, need some help from film buffs...

Who the hell is Dr Manhattan? I realise there is the film Watchmen coming out very soon but I've just been asked by a customer to add these videos to my blog for this....These aint real trailers imo, or are they?

1st one is this NBS Nightly News with Ted Philips, March 11th 1970

or even this : The Keene Act & YOU (1977)

Seriously I`ve got no idea wtf this film is all about...I`ve seen a Watchmen trailer but wtf have these videos to do with it?

I guess if Meez can't help me here then noone can....maybe ask cuttyp?
