Welcome to First Alert 4. 

Tonight’s edition came from a virtual recreation of Studio 1A.

Jim’s final newscast in full. What a legend. 

The BBC posted earlier tonight on their election live blog about Trump’s interview with NewsNation. Needless to say, the way they described the network is something to say the least.

NewsNation is pathetic when it comes to breaking news, hell Thursday, "NewsNet" & One America News were both covering the news out of the UK regarding the Queen.

Not only were NEWSnet covering the Queen’s death, they actually have someone stationed outside Buckingham Palace to cover the death.

The YouTube channel “Mike” has posted a video of what seems to be the the new CBS O&O graphics. Largely mirrors the CBS News Streaming look. 

Notice sent to affiliates via newspath earlier today.

Norah O Donnel off on two critical nights. Is she on vacation or sick? 

She tested positive for COVID a few nights back. 

WJMN has announced that they will start to air local newscasts on the weekends starting this spring, airing at 6pm and 11pm for an hour long. In addition, they will also carry NewsNation’s Morning in America from 7-10am starting on February 28.

Long time talk show host Larry King has sadly passed away this morning at the age of 87. 

 

What a legend this guy was. Even after he left CNN, he never stopped doing what he loved. Rest In Peace to a true legend. 

Tuned into NewsNet a few minutes ago and they seemed to be live covering the inauguration. Branding was under the breaking news banner.

And we have a Nexstar endtag.

It appears WZDX will launch soon. 
They’re now using the weather graphics on their website. 

Here’s a video from last week showing the new weather graphics. Seems like they started using them on Friday.

As for WIFR, it appears they have a variant of the WBAY/WBTV graphic package with a change of fonts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WIFR debuted this set of graphics when they launched their new 4pm newscast last Tuesday. The weather forecasts also rebranded under the “First Alert Weather” branding, with minor modifications on that end.

We're into 2020 and WMSN is STILL using FOX searchlights in their logo, despite FOX dropping it in 1999. Amazing times to be alive in.

It doesn’t really mean much if they still have the searchlights in the logo. It’s easy to associate it with the FOX brand and it saves management money since they don’t have to spend money to replace all the logos with the new one. Hence why WRLH still had the searchlights in its logo until a few years ago. 

WMSN has gotten the new graphics.

The 6p open of NewsChannel8 is one of the best ways to do a Sinclair open.

They really did a good job customizing the open to make it more unique.

WTIC is starting their Tegna transition.

 

The 11pm open includes the Tegna breaking news graphic, looks like we can expect changes within the next week. 

There’s so many things wrong with it. The voiceover, the gold and black in the graphics, the new branding. This is just not a good look.
