This ain't the first time they attempted something like this. Remember the middle of the Jeff Glor era?

Can't wait to see the major backlash

Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs

Too cartoonish to me

The new scorebug has debuted. Looks nice. Don't know if this is new, as I'm only watching this because it's free but, the scorebug is interchangeable to allow any information on the players and other things like total plays. Expanded details on the players Flag piece of the scorebug Referee warning piece of the scorebug Booth review Touchdown: Eagles Touchdown: Chiefs These Touchdown graphics are very cartoonish. Even the images of the players are drawn. Scoring board information. I wish a variation of this worked with the Touchdown graphic. Looks nice and elegant with a touch of sportiness. The Super Bowl logo is nice and 3D, rebuking the now-typical flat trends Another 3D transition

Do viewers think that because the logo is read like the way it is, it's meant to be said that way? I guess then YouTube should actually be called “Play YouTube”, the upcoming Super Bowl should be called “L-V-I-I Super Bowl”, and FedEx should be called “Fed-Arrow-Ex”. Now, I'm not saying no. Obviously, there's wordmarks on logos to help people know what it is called. Heck, there's even some logos without the wordmark, so it may be hard to tell what is it called, unless they are so popular you don't even need the wordmark. But I'm also saying some logos can include symbols that are meant to be there that includes words, but it's not meant to be said with the brand. So I'm pretty sure that what we're seeing in some of these new CBS News local logos are station symbols, because as I stated a time ago, CBS is researching which brand is more popular, which station should ditch the channel number, etc. I guess the stations that want to keep the channel numbers, this may be the route for their news counterparts.

The streaming service? Cool. The premium cable channel? There's no way they'll rebrand to such a long name like that.

Obviously, this is 100% wrong and unjustified, especially with what the Governor said. And no reporter should bare that. But with all the bad stuff that they've been doing, specifically with Perry Shook and his actions inside and outside NewsNation, you can say this was karma.

Unsurprisingly, NewsNation may be so desperate to hire the two lovebirds from GMA. The same news organization ran by a man who had sexual assault allegations, who worked for GMA. https://www.msn.com/en-US/tv/news/forbidden-lovers-amy-robach--tj-holmes-looking-for-new-gigs-at-newsnation-after-being-dumped-by-abc-over-gma-affair/ar-AA17aRpi?ocid=sapphireappshare I have a slogan for them. NewsNation: We hire scandal-plaqued hosts to bring News to our Nation.

No wonder why they must've been delayed so many times since announcing their return to news. They wanted everything right and they didn't launch until the full quality was perfect. Take it like a company that was releasing a new product. You see something wrong with one of the new features. Do you release that product with the flaw, or just delay it until you fix it? A quality company would delay it, and that's the case with CBS News Detroit. By the way...you don't see many companies doing that nowadays

Well, the black and gold remains. Congrats to y'all black and gold fans.

I'll tell you one thing about Nate Burleson. Paramount is really using him good in this synergy. Maybe because he's very talented, or maybe because there's something else I don't know about. Expect him to host Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards this year. Nate Burleson & Charli D’Amelio To Host Kids‘ Choice Awards – Deadline

As I am sure everyone knows, I for one welcome this new era. WBZ, when I tune to you, I better hear CBS News Boston being announced. Okay...maybe they'll stick with WBZ News. But you know, you never know. But I understand that not everyone here is welcomed to this change. The call letters, the number, the font of it on the logo, it's iconic. And when you see it gone, for some, it's like a sad thing. It's like losing a nice painting you had in your house for years. So, I feel for you guys that may not like it.

I assume it's because of "The Desk" segments or the KCAL News branding?

Goodbye lovebirds. Can't wait to see a documentary, or a movie based on this in the next few years.

One day, when names and logos are permanent channel numbers replacements, the world will be a less cluttered place.

Now that's nostalgic right there, with the information graphics. Feels like the old OTA NBC Weather Plus, or the News12 NY Weather and Traffic channels. Hope they keep it there, especially for streaming.

Oh boy. I'm already imagining what some people are gonna think. But it's nice that they're finally promoting the CBS News local brand a little...through a simple bug change.

I mean, I'm pretty sure that the stations news ops. talked about what happened with the Washington Post murder. So imagine a few years later they promote the Saudi-funded golf games.....you would see a field day of people calling them out. So if they don't want to suffer the price of the affiliation motherlord's dark ambitions....this is the way to go.

I am shocked that their app is not behind a cable paywall, or even a subscription for the shows nor the golf coverage. But I'm scared that may change.

One more thing: I haven't seen an article from PIX on it, but look at this spin from another Nexstar station trying to justify it as a good thing.

Ah, Tiffany's. No matter how much you get, they keep breaking. Must be bad luck.

Just to provide perspective, Nexstar is not the only company to do this. Not sure if it's online but, based on my studies (streaming on TV), most NBC O&O local news channels on Peacock and Roku, and Hearst's Very Local channels run delayed newscasts as well. So Nexstar is not the first, but I hate the fact that this is a trend. The good news for NBC local streaming channels is that I've seen them go live for breaking news, and I believe that the NBC Boston news channel is live as well when simulcasting NECN. So hopefully Nexstar can still offer breaking news live. But still, not justifying this dumb move at all.

Simple takeaway from this week: - KPIX showed us how to rebrand their newscasts the right way - KCAL showed us how to rebrand it in the most throwback, independent, weirdest way possible I mean, for those who worked with KCAL before moving to KCBS, this is a nostalgic moment for them. For the viewers and some here, it's either bad, or could've been better. For me: Well....good thing I don't live in California.
