Radio One D.C. honored NBC Washington's Jim Vance at its second annual media appreciation lunch.
Dozens celebrated his 42 years anchoring for News4 and giving back to our community.
The "Sisters for Sisters Network" said Vance has become such an icon that they had to induct him into their organization as a "brother."
Some of his coworkers showed a video montage spotlighting his hard work.
Several others were quick to share their appreciation for a man who defines "news leader."
