From btm0815ma: the Mon. Nov. 2, 1981 broadcast of WNT on ABC, wherein the announcer at the top bills Frank Reynolds as being in the then-new Washington newsroom for ABC, and at the bottom, Frank shows off some more of that then-new studio (he wouldn't have long to enjoy it, though, passing on in 1983 at 59)...

https://abc7news.com/entertainment/70-years-of-abc7--behind-the-scenes-of-tv-news-in-1988/5750478/

 

They posted it for their 70th anniversary, also did a really thoughtful tribute to 70s Van Amburg era

WRC Washington, D.C.: 1980s promo campaign for NewsCenter 4 (the caption says it's from 1980, but I think this was really 1981 or '82), "We Can't Wait to Show You" (four separate promos: first a general one [for all editions], then 5:30 [early prime], 6 P.M. [evening edition, full-hour, 6-7], and 11 P.M. [late edition];) I think WRC really sold their product (at the time) remarkably well.
