Ehh they better fix that and quick

The rumors keep growing so might as well make a thread right? With rumors over Savanah's long-ish absence from "TODAY", some say it could mean something more. That potentially being she or Kristen Welker could become the first female moderator since the position's inaugural holder Martha Roundtree. What do y'all think? https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/8/28/savannah-guthrie-to-exit-today-show https://www.thedailybeast.com/nbcs-meet-the-press-shakeup-puts-chuck-todd-in-jeopardy

I at first did not have much hope for this rebrand but the new intro, updated 87 theme, in studio graphics actually changes my mind! I can't wait to see this in action!

True, most networks in foreign countries (like Canada) have a six and ten newscast. Always found it weird why the US networks never catched on, likely because of our "local first" vision. BBC airs newscasts at 6 and 10 (formally nine when ITV still had "News at Ten" and so does ITV. Always also found it weird why for like at 6/5 in the US, local newscast came first then national while internationally (UK especially) it is the opposite.

I thought they learned their lesson with "The Jay Leno Show"?

I've seen some decent mocks on YT (and here on TVNT as well) showing what the Evening News might look like with the modern CBS brand with graphics and an intro. Perhaps some might be possible accurate predictions...

Saw this when searching for WKTB (Atlanta Telemundo). Given that we hear WGCL's temporary set is to be their permanent set in due course could this mean they are moving into 14th Street with WGCL?

Whatever it is (if anything), it'll probably make the set worse

Inside Edition hasn't even be on WGCL for a year! It seems a little ludicrous to move something so soon. It is harder to have more news as an CBS affiliate with TPIR, LMAD (depending on where you are in the county for time), Y&R, B&B, AND The Talk. I'm all for canceling the latter though

The KOLN graphics aren't that bad for Gray standards, in fact their quite good. Perhaps WGCL and the Meredith stations will get something similar (likely in WGCL'S case, new graphics and a rebrand might be in store with the new upcoming set )

Very sad to see her go. Though perhaps we can get a much needed graphics update with her successor

The temporary and new set were designed by BDI with the temporary one to be the new permanent set for Atlanta Telemundo. https://www.The Other Site.com/2022/08/09/wgcl-assembly-altanta-temporary-set/

Alright here are a few pictures of the set up at "Assembly". Like I said before, I'm pretty sure that's the old weather desk their using, with a non working screen ofcourse. Sorry but a construction site is is not the most desired backdrop for a newscast though. It seems like a very much cluttered space but ofcourse smile and wave for the boss! Also I seen the last image during the LNL feed, and saw that interesting graphic with one of the Gray bottom graphics with the WGCL logo, don't know how to feel about that

I don't really see the point other than to advertise the new upcoming space for Gray. You've got a nice temporary set, why not just use that until October? I wouldn't be surprised if we got ANOTHER temporary set after this week knowing WGCL. This seems rather pointless. And yes I would be complaining to if ai had to take down that complete hodgepodge excuse of a set

Great find! Please keep an eye out on anchor's social media. A remote studio huh? That will be interesting. It feels so great to see that ugly set finally come down. That desk in the remote location looks like the old weather desk

That's actually a good possibility. This temporary set does look good in yellow/orange for WakeUp Atlanta, that would match "MP One on One" 's graphics

I honestly wouldn't mind, it's a major improvement despite being temporary. Just add a desk, add another area for weather and call it a day

Here are some more pictures on how it is being used. I will go as far to say it looks more visually appealing than the outgoing set by a thousand years. Very much like the temporary set they used before the outgoing set debuted, it is more elaborate than most small market permanent sets. Obviously the standing desk is a complaint let's hope the new set won't have that!

Bumping this up because we are on what appears to very much be a TEMPORARY SET!! One picture is below, will attempt to capture more, it is very "out there" to be a temporary set to say the least

oh gosh imagine Hearst's short ass intro's with WXIA's logo.....

UPDATE: It appears the new graphics have made their on air debut and might I say what a disappoinment from the original designed by JCD. The lower thirds were only used in the teaser and credits, still seems to be wrong font. The old graphics are STILL used for intros of some segments like "covering California" and weather still uses the old graphics (despite the initial graphics designed by JCD had weather graphics!). A new green screen set is also being used with the new title card in the background. The intro is though great, the new cut of NewsOne is great too, for a normal station I would say "I hope these clearly easily avoidable mistakes are fixed soon" but knowing this station I HIGHLY doubt that.

Ain't that a way to go out!

This station is just plain pitiful

KMSG appeared to launch new graphics from a quick report on Facebook Friday as news was not on that day due to other programming, are these being used on air currently? Intro is different, logo is slightly altered, slight references to the old package are still there though in corners and the weather graphics are the same, excuse the buttons from these poor, quick screenshots

Good for her, she'll do great I'm sure! Not the first time an Atlanta anchor went to Philly or vis versa, Lorrie Wilson for example went from WGCL to WCAU to WSB
