Another NewsActive3 upload; this is the December 4, 1970 ABC Evening News (Howard K. Smith's on vacation; leaving Frank Reynolds anchoring solo on this - the last newscast before he was pushed aside in favor of Harry Reasoner on the ABC anchor desk; not to return until the 1978 premiere of the World News Tonight format)

 

Note his surprisingly ornery farewell speech beginning at the 25:27 mark.

Oh yeah, I forgot that the late great kwvtads (why hasn't he tried a comeback?) uploaded an intro from this peroid way back when.

I'm still trying to find the Broadcast News-era open, it was in a NewsActive3 compilation a long time ago but I haven't found it since.

Ask and ye shall receive at 26:45.

 

They also (apparently) had another open possibly during 1993/94, basically with Broadcast News but with the 1994 “6”:

The Today Show moves to a new set, 1990:

 

 

Loved the old apartment set - so well lit and warm - made the guests look great. One of my favorite sets of all time for news. Wasn't a fan of the new one. Just plain dark.

Until the current Windows on the world set, opening a bright new era for Today.
