This cut and mix of "MCTYW" was used by WPIX (Channel 11) in New York for their "Action News" opens and closes from 1977 until 1984. I can still hear the voice of Bill Littauer opening each edition, albeit differently each time. (F'rinstance, at 10 P.M., as of 1980: "This is Channel 11 'Action News' with Pat Harper, Bill Jorgensen, Jerry Girard, and the award-winning 'Action News' team.")
I believe this was also the WTNH-8 Action News theme circa 1978.
It took plenty of aerial maneuvering to pick that up from Queens..!

And at 7:30 in 1981-82: "This is the award-winning 'Action News' with Pat Harper, Steve Bosh, Jerry Girard and Roberto Tirado."
