It's based off the 2019/2020 CBS network graphics package. I've recycled the same pieces for some projects.
Of course you have
I wish more stations would use the package. It looks good and seems easy to utilize. Simple & easy way to give a stations brand into that of CBS.

Because that job can typically be combined with another role. Unlike Meteorology, traffic doesn't require a degree.
I know THEY could do it, but these reporters envelop themselves in city roads and traffic patterns and that benefits the viewers, imo. But, this was obviously a local decision. Surprising that something like this would come from WTHR.

How is this "Tegna-itis"? A lot of TEGNA stations have a traffic reporter. The fact that WTHR dropped theirs obviously was a local decision. It's a rare example of local media evolving and re-thinking dated concepts.
But how is a traffic reporter dated? I though my that was one of THE reasons people watched the morning news.

WTHR has officially been Tegna-fied. The look fits them GOOD. Here's the open for "13 News" at Noon.

Interestingly, looks like Tegna has wiped clear their job postings. Only 2 are listed when there are usually dozens. Wonder if it's due to COVID-19 or the acquisition attempts?
I highly doubt it's because of acquisition attempts. Even if they do decide to sell, it could be a year or more before they are officially taken over. They still have to operate.
It could be because of COVID-19, an error, they are moving to a new website, or those positions got filled and they never took them down.

How can I join the Discord? There's something here on the TVNewsTalk website that says you can join it, but it won't let me.
I can't remember how I did it, and the page just gave me an error message. @Weeters would be better equipped to answer this question!

Cross-posted from Discord: I've been told by a source that WTHR will launch the Tegna GFX/Music next Wednesday (3/25) at noon!

Are you referring to the graphics or just the way 10TV is handling things with using the Tegna package for everything but Face The State? If it's the latter then that "may" have confirmed just about everything that's creating the uncertainty at Tegna's HQ at the moment and maybe perhaps WBNS knows something that we don't.
Regarding the Face the State music, as Weeters said (surprisingly) there is no corporate mandate to use C Clarity. It's just cheaper and easier for the stations to use it, so that's why they all do. I'm guessing they also use it because it is a unique opportunity to try something different in terms if the news music we are used to. WBNS' decision to continue the use of Aerial on Face the State has nothing to do with the fact that Tegna may or may not be sold.

Controversial opinion: I don't hate the graphics on WBNS. The theme, yeah, no, but it looks good enough.
I think the graphics fit them well. Some of the modifications they've done (especially to the L3s) seem a little off...but I'll get used to it. I think they've done a good job with the music, too. It's not like they ditched some legacy package anyway. It was Aerial for crying out loud haha!!

I’ve heard WTHR will be TEGNA’ed by the end of the month. I’ll ask my source for an update.
That's what I've been told, too. The new website and app will launch in early April. My WBNS source wouldn't say outright, but seemingly implied the new stuff is coming soon.

I would imagine they are keeping the music for now. They don't want to overwhelm their viewers with too much change, after all. C-Clarity will probably start to creep into the shows little by little.
I won't be surprised if that happens either. Honestly, MCTYW doesn't work well with the graphics at all. Kind of annoying, actually.

Just by looking at TV listings for next week, it looks like Take 5 goes away entirely.
That's so dumb. People actually liked Take 5. Their ratings were growing so it makes no sense to cancel it. Just put someone in Angela's place. Problem solved.

Idk if this has been covered here yet, but Thanh Truong is leaving WWL but he plans to stay put in New Orleans. His final day was today. He is going to launch a True Crime podcast with his wife.
Didn't he JUST move to the Noon newscast not too long ago from the later shows??https://www.nola.com/news/crime_police/article_9436cff8-51cf-11ea-a092-9f8736ea6a46.html
Not surprised he's leaving. He effectively got demoted. He was a very strong evening anchor. Disappointed he wont be showing up on New Orleans TV at the moment.

This was on Seth Myers' desk last night on Late Night With Seth Myers.
They probably just weren't paying attention and/or didn't get a new mug. They might not even know WKYC has a new logo. No way WKYC is changing the logo back now.

Hmm...this showed up on FOX61's (WTIC) Instagram story last night.

I've identified the new election music used on a lot of Tegna stations. It's called "Time To Roll" by FirstCom.

Yes, they are. And it's about dang time, too!

KFSM now has the Tegna weather graphics. Not sure if they fully debut the Tegna graphics today but here it is https://twitter.com/5NEWSGarrett/status/1222234909655420934?s=20
They launched the entire package at noon today.

Exactly the problem the industry is facing. Fewer eyeballs means more flash and bang than substance.
And flash isn't what millenials want. Authenticity is what appeals to them.

So I saw this on KFSM's Facebook page. Looks like they could be getting TEGNA-fied just a little.
The Grammys are on CBS tomorrow night...so I wouldn't be surprised if they get TEGNA-fied on their late news tomorrow.
