From Times Staff and Wire Service Reports

The promotion buildup for Deborah Norville begins tonight when she starts substitute-anchoring the “NBC Nightly News.” She’ll fill in for vacationing Tom Brokaw for the rest of the week, while also continuing on NBC’s “Today” show. NBC still plans for Norville to succeed Jane Pauley as co-host of “Today.” Pauley will end her 13-year stay Friday, and move on to a prime-time special in March and her own series in the summer.
