Greggo 354 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Their GM tweeted out a teaser that lets you see a sliver of the new set. It was built in a secondary studio they use for production, which is why they've been able to stay on the existing set.

[MEDIA=twitter]950088246788313088[/MEDIA] I wonder if they'll debut the new graphics and music with the set. The set looks pretty much done.

SFTV 526 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Definitely not looking forward to that kind of set here in San Diego... I was in Sacramento a few weeks ago, I couldn’t even watch all of KXTV’s newscast. I had to switch to KOVR. It’s that bad, KFMB is ruined.

It’s that bad, KFMB is ruined. Not all Tegna stations are like KXTV. It's just because they are trying that social media-hip-cool-on-TV thing that's never going to work, they're just too dumb to figure that out.

MyNewsArchive 197 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 KVUE is talking about their new set. http://www.kvue.com/news/local/new-year-new-set-kvue-unveiling-its-modern-makeover-sunday/509523549 I wouldn't call the new set crappy, but an improvement over the previous one.

TSSZNews 1051 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 It looks blah to us, but it'll likely be a breath of much needed fresh air into Austin. Side note: Not even TEGNA is dumb enough to pull on KFMB what they did to WTSP/KXTV.

LorenKarr 18 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Down the road in Corpus Christi, KIII is getting a new set, too. A couple of nights ago, they showed some video of the dismantling of their old set. If I heard him correctly, Joe Gazin said that he had been on that particular set for close to 18 years? Holy cow.

CaptainNews 287 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I don’t see what is wrong with these sets. Sure, that anchor desk could use a display but overall, it’s a nice set design.

Yes, it was introduced when they moved into their current facility in 2000. Looks like they will be getting rid of their version before former sister station KUSI does. Will be interested to see what comes of that one though. It's one of the few arrangements where you can not just see the newsroom in the back, but also when someone comes in or goes out the door to leave the building. Always thought was sort of different.

LorenKarr 18 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 One on hand, I'm going to miss 3's old set. On the other hand, and as much as I hate to see some things change, it'll be nice to see something more up to date. I had looked for this to happen a long time ago.

Conrad 113 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Noticed Microsoft Surface tablets being used for scripts... sister station KXTV does that too... KVUE still has the USA Today graphics for now because they're an ABC affiliate (same applies to KIII). Both will change soon, however.

jbnews 344 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Well, I'll have to see more, but this set is an upgrade for KVUE over what they had before. The new sets on Austin TV news are nice. but can be underwhelming given the market.
