Yes, I think CBS had a promo for The Late Show with David Letterman over the 11pm/10pm Central credits leading into the Local News tease for a while. Some stations (like WGNX in the clip above) would’ve used the supplied bed/music, while others replaced it with their own theme.
Similar deal on NBC, except of course promos for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno lead into their Local News teasers.
Before Fast Action (I believe), ATN-7 Sydney used another production music track as their news theme (“Steel Town” by Roger Roger and His Orchestra (which was also being used by BTQ-7 Brisbane at some point during the late 60s/early 70s)). Along with a teletype theme (a la CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite and several CBS O&Os at the time) for ATN 7 News during the mid-60s (followed by a “Report '66/'67” animation).

Just came across this on YouTube. AlJazeera’s current theme.
Also pointed out that they have also posted the NewsHour theme
In its entirety, the AM America theme from 1975. The show was a flop, but the theme was popular enough to be released commercially as a record:
Can we expect Sky News Australia to start using this new version of the Sky News theme?
Why?
AM America was canned 9 months in and replaced with Good Morning America.
Why not?
Although the new Sky News UK theme is a good one, I don’t think it really suits the type of channel that Sky News Australia is these days…
One of the producers who created the Good Morning America format was Bob Shanks, who went to on to run the Ten Network in the late 1980s.
Here’s the first Good Morning America theme:
…and a sample GMA broadcast from 1978:
Uh, because it too is themed as Sky News?
Named maybe, certainly not themed the same!
They use the Sky News UK theme in idents, openers and headline beds. We’re not talking about content or pres.
I believe Rick Wakeman’s “Overture” was used as by ATN7 Sydney as its news theme for a short period of time (October 1981-early 1984). Then they used NBC Nightly News electronic theme (sans the NBC chimes) by Joseph Paul Sicurella, Tony Smythe and Bob Christianson from mid-1984 until early 1985 when they started using Let’s All Be There as their slogan and the NBC affiliate package as its news theme.
The music in Al Jazeera’s updated Business Latest segment is something else. The last 20 seconds 
Some popular songs and instrumentals had a second life as news themes:
Gonna Fly Now (the theme from Rocky):
I Can See Clearly Now (The Rain Is Gone):
Do You Know The Way to San Jose?:
Classical Gas:
MacArthur Park:
And here’s Power News as heard on KUTV in Non-Stop’s home market of Salt Lake City in the 1990s:
Insiders theme…
One from the archives. Used by CBN8 in the mid 1980’s and a few other regional stations in some form or another. Sounds like Jean Michel Jarre’s Oxygene. https://youtube.com/shorts/fFqd4o8gdf0?feature=share
