WSVN Plex Deck

Just saw this posted on Twitter. Has anyone seen it on air yet?

They are really over the top. I guess they want to trump the elevated podium (guessing six feet off the floor) that WPLG has in their newsroom.

 

Edit: Here's the WPLG newsroom position. It looks good without being tacky (but that's WSVN's aesthetic).

And here's what the reporter sees:

What the hell???

 

You'd think with all the money spent on signage and LED fixtures, they could make the ceiling tiles in the upper corner look decent.

WPLG is just trying to copy WSVN at everything they do. The Plex Deck may be new but WSVN's been doing shots from its deck for years but in a different spot so its nothing new. WPLG's just trying to steal it away.

Everything about the city of Miami, including its news stations, is so tacky.

I was in South Florida until the 27th, and the "Plex Deck" wasn't a thing...but hey, its only adding to the #1 news set arguably in the nation!

Best in South Florida at least, yes. It'll still be better than WFOR's new set which debuts Monday.

Really? I still rank WTVJ's as #1 as my favorite and the most aesthetically pleasing. However they need to recalibrate their monitor wall.

I think WTVJ puts a decent product out, not too tacky compared to SVN and PLG. WFOR don't try at all but I will take their tame product before PLG and sometimes SVN.

[MorningNews 1500]

WTVJ is really good and WFOR news product isn't bad. It's crazy to me that they are the 3rd and 4th most watched station in the market.
