The Hearst Thread

[NWA_TV_guy 157]

KHBS/KHOG is broadcasting from their newsroom and using chroma key. If they are getting a new set it will probably debut with the new Hearst graphics. The news set they have now has been there since 2007 when the primary studio/newsroom/management offices moved to Rogers from Fort Smith and Fayetteville. 40/29 still has a facility in Fort Smith for KHBS.

WBAL’s running a 70th Anniversary Special Tuesday at 7:30pm. Really they signed on March 11th but you know sports.

WTAE's special election coverage on Facebook Live last night provided two pretty decent length opportunities to hear the AWESOME Strive 2016 Political Theme. Never heard this much of it before!

 

Listen at the start of this video:

 

And at 18:39 in this video:

 

 

Will stations still be using this music once they get the new graphics? Or are the new cuts we've been hearing a totally different update to Strive, no more original package?

On NO. That logo has been blue since the dawn of time. WHY would they mess with it now? Not only that, but put it in a box? Seriously?

So, WCVB West. Got it.

Basically.

--What a weird call to put the 9 in a box.

 

Only reason I could think for them to do it is because a consultant told them to. How competitive is KC now ratings-wise?

 

EDIT: Wait--"Today's KMBC 9?" That SCREAMS "consultant."

They must be desperate now that they're losing in the ratings to WDAF FOX 4 K.C.

So last place?

[TennTV1983 807]

So last place?

Come on. They're at least doing better than KSHB. Aren't they?

I don’t follow Kansas City news that much.

KHBS/KHOG now has a new set.

 

Not crazy about the silver part of the desk, but I like that background graphic.

[TheRolyPoly 2592]

So last place?

 

No, I think they're second or third now. A new logo look won't obviously help.

Yikes. Red does NOT suit KMBC.

[dman748 1256]

Today's KMBC 9? To quote Pat Sajak from the 80s when he went Bankrupt on the Final Spin "Fire this man" or should I say fire whoever it was that came up with that idea
