tyrannical bastard 3464 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Good thing Schurz moved quickly to upgrade KY3 and WDBJ. These sets would have never happened under Gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1847 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Good thing Schurz moved quickly to upgrade KY3 and WDBJ. These sets would have never happened under Gray. But hey, this may now convince Gray to update sets at some of their stations. WSAW recently launched a new set and I think WIBW is one of them that probably needs a new one soon.

WIBW just got a new set a few years ago, highly unlikely that they'll get another one any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oklahomanewsman 210 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Set looks nice I noticed when I was up there in the summer yes they're still using paper scripts but they had laptops did they decide to just have paper scripts on the anchor desk? Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious Probably. I have bad news. KY3 is no longer using Millennium 3; they are now using SAM's This Is The Place, which means there are no more American television stations using a Shelly Palmer news package.

That's the worst thing I've ever heard since WAFB 9 and WTOC 11 dropped Newschannel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSAW recently launched a new set and I think WIBW is one of them that probably needs a new one soon. WJRT's upcoming set is a step up for Gray. Even though WSAWs is good for its size, these Schurz sets are leaps and bounds ahead of what Gray has put out there...KY3s new set is like a larger, more refined version of WNDU's with much more of a larger market feel that rivals some of FXs marquee sets introduced over the years.

oklahomanewsman 210 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Ugh another great music package retired. It joins other great packages like Revolution (which is pretty much retired) and the KUSA Package by Third Street Music among others that have either pretty much retired or fully retired.

NEOMatrix 1295 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Graphics look Scripps-like and there's elements of the WDBJ set for KYTV. Sad that Palmer is now extinct, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sendir 192 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Perfect set for that market. Great job KY3 management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewsMaster 226 Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 Sad that Palmer is now extinct, though. Palmer isn't completely dead. A television station in the Cayman Islands uses the Brave New World, along with a John Christopher Burns graphics package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
