Terri Cope-Walton has been promoted to news director at WRTV, the ABC affiliate in Indianapolis.

Cope-Walton has worked at WRTV since 1998, most recently as assistant news director. She stepped into the role of interim news director in November 2012 after Kevin Finch parted ways with the station.

“After a nationwide search, I found the most qualified, natural leader for RTV6 News right here inside our station,” WRTV VP-GM Larry Blackerby said in a statement. “In just the past few weeks, Terri has done an outstanding job leading our team of journalists … Terri’s news judgment, passion and commitment to local coverage is outstanding.”

WRTV has announced Marc Mullins and Beth Vaughn will be the morning news team for “Good Morning Indiana.”

“Energy and urgency are what our viewers want in a morning newscast,” said Terri Cope-Walton, WRTV assistant news director. “Beth Vaughn delivers both.”

Vaughn comes to the Indianapolis ABC affiliate from KHSB in Kansas City where she was an anchor and reporter.  Vaughn’s co-anchor, Marc Mullins, comes to WRTV from KMTR in Eugene, OR, where he was also an anchor and reporter.

“We are very pleased Marc is joining our “Good Morning Indiana” team,” said vice president and general manager Larry Blackerby. “His experience as a morning anchor combined with his natural enthusiasm and passion for reporting will be a perfect fit for our morning viewers.”

The new team will start in January.
