  1. ABC started using the new logo as their on-screen bug during The View today.
  2. Actually, if you right-click the image to a new tab or window from Mission broadcasting's website, the URL reads: "https://missionbroadcastinginc.com/stationlogos/wnac_tv_providence_logo__nexstar_styled__by_unitedworldmedia_ddxkyww-fullview_1623891723.png" Nevermind, it was already mentioned.
  3. I think that the extra time/temp on the extreme lower right is actually from the Today Show's Namedropper ticker.
  4. No major graphics developments to report, but this happened to WKRC's news open tonight... I should also point out that the background where the date would normally appear never cued up.
  5. This is a spanish newscast. Why is their ticker in english???
  6. They've got nearly 200 stations under their belt, so the rollout will take ages to complete compared to a company who only has, for example, 60 stations. And then there's stations that use different graphics systems - so you have to either convert the graphics to whatever system they're using or send the station a system that the graphics were designed to work with and set it up. This was also the case with the previous graphics (Curves and Glass), and the rollout of that look took up its entire lifespan! (2014-2018) And it took so long that it wasn't even finished being fully implemented across all stations before the new look launched. The current look is already on it's third year, and now you've also got the COVID-19 pandemic that's already slowing everything down.
  7. Same thing with KGUN in Tucson. They kept the Journal graphics long after Scripps took over and never used the V2 graphics outside of weather.
  8. Next station that gets the graphics won't even use a logo at all.
  9. You know what else got lost? They also got the Tegna graphics: https://youtu.be/AeFsLjpr9S0 And WQAD may be next because they're a different logo on their website right now.
  10. Nexstar's graphics hub is based in Nashville, which would explain this.
  11. Replace the font in that logo with Proxima Nova, and that would look exactly like something from a Tegna station. (Ironically, Scripps did say they wanted a "Tegna Lite" look)
  12. Both logos are on their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/foxeastidaho/
  13. Does stolen logos count as knockoffs? I'm asking this because KXPI-LD in Pocatello, Idaho stole the logos of FOUR other Fox stations! (KSWB, WNYW, WTTG and WAGA)
  14. I just found this on NewscastStudio... https://www.newscaststudio.com/2019/12/04/cbs-oo-new-graphics-rollout/
  15. The new Scripps look isn't that bad... ...if it was made for a small-market station, or if this were a fan mockup, a cheap VideoHive template, or even a PowerPoint template. But for Scripps stations? Most of which are major broadcasters in major markets? NO!!!!!!!!! From everything I've seen of this look so far, it's way too boring for me to handle. Actually, it's so boring that I've actually ran out of ways to criticize these graphics! And since Scripps now owns WPIX, these ultra-underwhelming graphics might be coming to New York City!!! Take a minute to think about that. That being said, I'll be shocked if these graphics manage to stick around for 2 or more years. In fact, I expect this new look to meet the same fate as Raycom's 2013 red/white/blue look: It'll only last for about a year and a half (or less), then decommissioned mid-rollout. B O R I N G Not me. After an issue that I had one year in a student program at WCPO, I stopped caring. The FCC can revoke their license for all I care.
  16. This wouldn't be the last time KARK would rip off another station's logo...
  17. I just rewatched that section, but those graphics were actually for NBC’s former overnight news service, NBC Nightside. They do look similar though. Here’s the full open: https://youtu.be/xZQ1aMBNgvg?t=54
  18. I didn't see WESH's version in there. Only WTVJ's.
  19. In Florida, WESH copying WTVJ's Novocom look in the late 1990s... WTVJ: https://youtu.be/iDz4oiwQ_Rg WESH: https://youtu.be/-_RvbhzeRUs

    Surprisingly, their website still hasn't updated to the new logo: https://www.wkyc.com/

    Inside the station: As long as there isn't chronic talent turnover, they should be fine. Outside the station (viewers watching at home): The rebranding shouldn't make the station any worse than the "farm system" era, but they're screwed either way.

    Just wait 'til this logo debuts and viewer complaints start flooding into the station on social media!

    Their soon-to-be-new logo? ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW??? WHAT THE F$&% IS THIS?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!? THIS is where we're at with broadcast logo design? There are things in life that just doesn't need to happen. This is one of them. Now I gotta update their Logopedia page with this painfully underwhelming abomination that ANYONE can recreate in Powerpoint in just under ten seconds... It hasn't debuted yet and it's already giving every bad station logo a run for their money; yes, even this logo from station KXDF-CD. TROIKA EVEN MADE YOU A LOGO! AND IT'S 999,999,999X BETTER THAN WHAT'S ABOUT TO HAPPEN!!! (image below) 1. This logo is so underwhelming and bland that I cannot just sit on the sidelines and let WKYC or Tegna get away with this. 2. What works in Great Britain doesn't always translate well in here in the US.
