There are some news theme music out there that are completely symphonic:

 

 

Local news themes:

 

KIRO 1993 News Theme - CBS affiliate in Seattle, WA

 

KFDA News theme - Eric Enfalt and the Amarillo Symphony's theme song for the CBS station in Amarillo, TX

 

WGN 1991 News theme - theme music for the pre-WB-and-then-CW, and former independent, station in Chicago

 

 

Network News themes:

 

CBS Evening News: Dan Rather's theme song from 1987-2006, with the 7-note signature; and Katie Couric's theme, which was done by John Williams' competitor James Horner (Titanic and other movie themes).

 

NBC Nightly News: Tom Brokaw segue to Brian Williams - 1985-now - song done by John Williams (E.T., Indiana Jones, Star Wars and Superman).

 

ABC News: PrimeTime Live, Turning Point and 1986's Our World - Bill Conti (composer of ROCKY theme); and the World News Now 1992 theme from Yanni.

 

 

Those are examples of news themes done by an orchestra.
