Judge for yourself.

is that a standard newscast? it looks more like entertainment tonight rather than the evening news. anyway, i dont have a problem with vocals in a newscasts open, but i dont think it needs a jingle, like that one appears to have, it should be just vocals adding to the music. if you listen to 615's Alive on NMSA towards the end you hear some vocals, and i think it really ads to it. but it shouldnt jingle

Yup, that is ABS-CBN's late night newscast.

If Primo can do that for Teen Kids News, it'd be a happy day for children's' and news programming alike! (If you don't know what I'm talking about, check here - http://tinyurl.com/yd2cl7) And yes, the legendary Al Primo of Eyewitness News fame did master TKN!

Newscasts with theme songs are a little closer to home than you might think...
