This promo was from the early 1980s.  It is a promo for "The New NewsCenter4"  It features Marty Levine, Jim Vance, George Michael and Bob Ryan.  All of them except Marty are still at WRC-TV.

Dan Rather is here plugging the CBS Evening News coming to WBAL-TV, then NBC Affiliate switching to CBS.  They are currently an NBC once again.  This promo was to show how Action News 11 was just as good as CBS NEWS.
 
This is the opening from the mid 1990s for News4.  This was a time that you could easily say that WRC-TV looked like WNBC-TV, their New York sister.  This is also the beginning of News4 starting their newscasts earlier at 4:30pm.  About five years after WUSA started their newscasts at 4pm.
When WBAL-TV was an CBS Affiliate.  THis news opening from 1994 reflected that.  This set was also used until this year.  The only changed that they made was from 1997 when they changed the lettering of "WBAL-TV Baltimore" under the "11" logo.
Are they talking right to you?  Here it is, the song that is making WJZ Eyewitness News, even more popular in Baltimore.  Is it any wonder why?
Does this look familiar?  Before you take a guess, let me tell you that it is NOT WNBC NewsChannel 4 in New York.
WJLA debuted this opening in 1995 and it lasted for about four years.
NewsChannel 2 became 2 News in 1998.  A great opening, but ugly logo.
There's Only One 'JZ Campaign took off in 1994.  The late Al Sanders is the voice of the first two promos and then the station ID with the Eyewitness News Anchors.
In 1995 Channel 9 Eyewitness News Started Eyewitness News This Morning 30 minutes earlier.  That's right 5:30AM.  The anchors were Mack Lee, Carol Presutti, Topper Shutt with Weather and Stacey Binn at Metro Traffic.  Everyone except Topper has left.  Stacey Binn is now part of The Jack and Bert Morning Show on MIX 107.3 in DC.  This clip is the last two minutes.
A promo for FOX Morning News on FOX 5.  They are the only Morning Newscast currently that is not starting at 5AM.  This promo also feature Brian Wilson from FOX News Channel and Tony Perkins from Good Morning America.
