Which one was it? Because NBC News at Sunrise didn't debut until a year later... in 1983. And if so, other things must have aired during the 5:00-6:30am timeframe.

You're right about that. Most likely CNN Headline News and either a replay of the 11:00 PM NewsCenter 4 broadcast, or an early morning edition of that. Or perhaps even two different CNN Headline News broadcasts. The schedule only says "News", so there's no way of knowing for sure exactly which newscasts those were.

Just researched through newspapers.com, and it turns out that it WAS CNN Headline News at 5:30 AM, as well as at 11:00 AM (incorrectly listed as NewsCenter 4). There is nothing listed in the 6:00 AM slot, so my best guess might be a second Headline News episode.
