Mrtraveler01 738 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Look's like KTWO is slowly phasing in this new monstrosity on its newscasts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvhtcUZTTx0 "KTWO 2"? Not sure if this or the new WEAR logo is worse. It's pretty close. Especially since the logo bug covers up half of the bottom screen.

effseesee 101 Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Even more ridiculous is that the logo on the monitor says "Wyoming's News Leader," but the bug says "Wyoming's Weather Leader."

NEOMatrix 1302 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Why does the ABC logo seem slapped on at the last minute? Seriously, the logo would be a little tolerable if the ABC logo and maybe the "cowboy and horse" was eliminated.

Jess 1115 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 ABC logo has to be there per the affiliation contract. It looks like they designed the logo without the ABC ball and then someone there said "where's the ABC logo"?

who?cares 254 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I was going to say how this looked as bad as the 2006-2010 WTWO NEWSCHANNEL logo. But KTWO actually makes it look professional.

Viper550 291 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Meanwhile, I searched for their site, and their listing says: "News, weather, sports, road conditions, programming schedule, and employment opportunities.

sanewsguy 511 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Guys, this is an independently owned station in DMA 196. Don't set your expectations too high. It's not a "great" logo, but it's serviceable. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14465-ktwo-new-logo/#findComment-129859 Share on other sites More sharing options...

speed053 37 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I don't like the way they did with their KTWO logo.

At least it's decent for a very small market at DMA #196 A logo like that is what's expected from an independently-owned station in such a small market (although, they're now competing with Gray). Now, compare it to WFOX/WJAX, whose logos are definitely not top-50 material.

NEOMatrix 1302 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Seeing that ABC forces its affiliates to use the ABC logo, why didn't KTWO drop the "cowboy and horse" and put the ABC ball there? It does the job for what it's worth. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14465-ktwo-new-logo/#findComment-129882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC 7 Denver 1725 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I just realized, that '2' that KTWO is using is the same as the WBBH '2'. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14465-ktwo-new-logo/#findComment-129941 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journalist 894 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I just realized, that '2' that KTWO is using is the same as the WBBH '2'. Not exactly. The curves of the WBBH '2' are more sleek - similar to Helvetica. KTWO '2' looks like some next gen Franklin Gothic crap.
