Australia
ABC is in the middle of converting ABC Entertains and ABC News to high-definition (I know, right? In 2025?). It has started doing so in Tasmania (ABT; home to Hobart) and South Australia (ABS; home to Adelaide) and is doing a staged roll-out to the upcoming states across the country:
- Tuesday, June 17th - Western Australia (ABW; home to Perth) and Northern Territory (ABD; home to Darwin)
- Thursday, June 19th - Queensland (ABQ; home to Brisbane)
- Tuesday, June 24th - New South Wales (ABN; home to Sydney) and Australian Capital Territory (ABC; home to Canberra)
- Thursday, June 26th - Victoria (ABV; home to Melbourne)
ABC will continue to offer ABC TV in SD and HD as well as ABC Kids/ABC Family in SD.
And the interesting thing is, the ABC News channel was HD from its launch in 2010 until ABC TV HD relaunched in 2016.

NBC News has announced that Lester Holt will be stepping down as anchor of the broadcast after a decade in the anchor chair. He will remain with NBC News, moving to Dateline full-time this summer.

And apparently on a Green Screen set that mimics the originating one.
I don't think that's a green screen set. It looks like the actual set. The back floor of the set is a screen.

Not to mention that Weekdays and Weekends have two different production teams.

CBS News 24/7 has been carrying coverage of WUSA, ABC News Live has been doing their own coverage, and NBC News Now has been carrying WRC's coverage when they're not showing Special Report coverage.
CBC News is following this as well with The National in breaking news mode, due in part to the passenger plane being a Canadian-made Bombardier CRJ-701 manufactured in 2004.

Another thing to note: the headlines music bed was used during the story teases when going out to the first commercial break. So even if its not being used in its traditional location in the broadcast, it's still being used for something.

I was very pleased with what we watched, and I'll definitely be watching the repeat on CBS News 24/7 later tonight. It's definitely got 60 Minutes meets PBS News Hour meets local news. It was a nice relief to just have the intro going into the A-Block and not have a headlines sequence to open the broadcast.
So happy that the 1987 theme is back (in its 2011 remastered version), but I can also agree that it would've been nice to hear the 1991 theme for the first time in 19 years.

I saw it on X/Twitter, I don't know if we can trust it. But it looks like this is going to be the new set for the CBS Evening News
Just from this photo alone, I'm getting Studio 1515 (the studio in Times Square) and KCAL/KCNC/WBBM set vibes. The new anchor desk looks exactly like the KCAL/KCNC/WBBM anchor desks (just without the wood border around the front screen), the walls of screens are similar to the walls of screens in Studio 1515, and the color of the wood floor and some structural elements are similar to the KCAL/KCNC/WBBM sets.

NIce... but font-wise, we're already ditching that Mandate huh?
Hopefully its just for the logo, given that Face The Nation, 48 Hours, and 60 Minutes haven't changed anything major on their logos (or just subtle tweaks) since the 2020 rebrand occurred. But, looking at the serif font used, it's the same one used on the CBS News website and app.

KDKA finally got news mic flags, although unlike all of the others that use the call sign square, the entire mic flag is black.

A minor change to the weather graphics for KDKA happened last night, the title bar with the gold line underneath has now been replaced with a full width white title bar. I'm not seeing it show up on the other O&Os.

Is there another reason as to why she might be leaving?
From what Hoda said in her letter to the Today Show team, it's just that she wants to have more time with her daughters and mom, and that it is time to try something new.
Again, she's just leaving Today. She's not leaving NBC.

That is a pretty nice new set. Even though it’s new, it builds upon the style and structure of the previous set.

I actually think it's a good evolution of the Hearst design, which has aged pretty well compared to the other group packs. I like to think they didn't change them wholesale because they see their stations visually as newspapers in design where stability is a good thing and any change should be subtle and slow.
Yes, it looks like more of the same, but Hearst is already on top in many of their markets. Not much they do need to do to keep that advantage, and the graphics match their 'not broken' thinking.
I agree. It’s a nice evolution of the diagrid graphics (even if the diagrid isn’t fully visible in the new ones), and they do fall in line with the teaser graphics that have been rolled out over the past few months.

Just reading up on it, and it feels like CBS is trying to do what the CBC did with The National back in the fall of 2017 after Peter Mansbridge retired that summer (minus the 4 person rotation of anchors).

In a surprise move, CBS-2 Chicago has rebranded to CBS News Chicago.
And they incorporated the stars from the city's flag into the graphics.

In addition to transitioning to the CBS News Chicago brand on air, WBBM has returned to the streetside studio after 7 years, along with a KCAL-style set to boot.

WKYC has been using the branding since last week, but the Weather Impact Alert stuff has been used for about the past month or two.

And as of the 19th, KNTV has made the graphics yellow for the morning broadcasts.

According to the photos and the video on the CBS News Colorado website, they went full KCAL with the set.

It wasn't giving KCAL at all to me. More like the former KCBS set.

By the looks of it on that reel, it looks like a mashup of the KCAL set and the former KCBS set.

And within the last year and a half or so, KDKA and WPXI stopped using Chopper 2/Chopper 11, which has left Sky 4 from WTAE as Pittsburgh’s only news helicopter.

I’m watching KTLA’s livestream right now. It’s heartbreaking hearing about this. They’ve had celebrities and fellow entertainment journalists that knew him on the phone to talk and reminisce.

And as of this morning, Velshi has new graphics focused on the letter 'V' and the colors blue, green, and white.

According to our UK counterparts on Pres Cafe, this picture of the studio was heavily sepia-toned.
