I noticed that KBAK/KBFX has added a bunch of clutter to their graphics on all newscasts. Are other Sinclair stations doing this?

KOKH has a similar version of that ticker (although formatted for the 4:3 safe area) for its weekday morning newscast.

A little birdie tells me that WDKY will be launching the new look tonight at 10. It's long overdue, but it's finally here!

 

Edit- just saw jtb_ky's post above. Sorry for the double post!

I have a feeling that the music/graphics will be from "Curves" and not form "Glass," which is the package I like best from Sinclair.

Hmm...they may not be staying with Sinclair long, but it seems that Curves sneaked in a few months ago at WLUC for Friday Night Fever.

 

 

It doesn't seem to have replaced Advantage anywhere else.

Yeah, even I can tell it seems a bit off-model. Especially the animations too (personally, I think they'd look a lot better if they actually animated just like WKYT's

WGXA.TV is under the new website format, but I believe they are still broadcasting local news in 4:3 SD.

Been like that for close to 2 months now, and yes they are still in 4:3 SD

So as I mentioned in chat, I speculate the Syracuse (CNY Central) cluster might be next at some point, because they had an ad on the boards during the AHL All-Star Game that had new logos that seemed similar to ones other Sinclair stations had been switching to when they got Sinclair-ified

KUTV is Sinclair and yet they just debuted this graphics package with the Sinclair music.

 

Did someone finally stand up for the ugly graphics package? Their lower thirds are not the same as all Sinclair stations:

Wow, those look really good. Hard to believe they're on a Sinclair station.

 

I guess since KUTV has been one of the best performing stations in the entire Sinclair station group, I guess they could get away with stuff like this.
