It has been and on and off rumored thing,but their owner,Albritton,has a contract with ABC that will keep WJLA with them for what should be a long time.
To add,recently WRC has been sluggish with ratings recently and sometimes beats WJLA by slim margins.Pretty soon,ABC 7 News may lead the majority of D.C newscast timeslots.
Who is the voiceover artist. Sounds like the guy from WLS-TV in Chicago.

This opening is terrible compared to what the ABC O&Os use.

WJLA's now in HD with a new open. It's better than what's on this video I am commenting on.

@catbeast2007 No, that's WRC-TV (NBC 4, branded on air as "News 4"). WJLA has been gaining on them in recent years, however
