TVNewsCheck states that Fox O&Os are redesigning its pages as what they call it "a responsive design" for all of its websites' date=' based on heavy traffic via on moblie devices. Last week, it was implemented in Memphis & Austin. The rollout will continue this week for the rest of the country.

I'm not seeing it on those two sites. Perhaps they rolled them back to the previous versions temporarilly.

 

[For the curious, you should be able to see a responsive site change on the fly. Go to bostonglobe.com or a site for one of the Tribune stations and play with the width of your web browser.]

Actually tried it on a mobile device: this is not a "responsive" layout at all: they just shifted the mobile sites to finally use the Worldnow backend,

"Responsive" really means that one design is supposed to automatically adapt itself based on window size (like the Boston Globe site there).

 

It also looks a tad broken.
