jbnews 344 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 When the Tegna Sets start to come of age for a refresh, I wonder who will break the barrier in the group and install monitors on the anchor desk! The new KPNX set has monitors on the desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbnews 344 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Their new logo is now posted on their Facebook page. DANG. That logo is so pretty. I also noticed they have a new slogan, "Real Matters". I LOVE THAT. TEGNA has been on-par with their rebrandings lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABC 7 Denver 1554 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 DANG. That logo is so pretty. I also noticed they have a new slogan, "Real Matters". I LOVE THAT. TEGNA has been on-par with their rebrandings lately. I I wish KUSA would simplify down to something like this for their logo. General branding is 9. News branding: 9 News. You don't actually need to have 'News' in the station title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breaking News 802 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I think TEGNA suits are reading this forum and hearing our concerns. They should, but I think there too busy trying to keep up. WUSA look nice but lets hope they're beating WJLA in the ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkBRollins88_v2 317 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It’s nice to see Tegna actually but some money into WUSA. Despite being in its largest market, WUSA IMO has been treated as a red headed stepchild over the years compared to other stations like WXIA, KUSA and WKYC. WFAA is in Tegna's largest market actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbnews 344 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Okay. I'm confused. They 'debuted' the new set this morning, but at noon and 5, they were back on the temporary set. What's going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evwalker0901 38 Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 Must be a phased roll out as the 5pm show is being done from the temp set again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me WXIA gets no special treatment from Tegna, if anything they are treated like WUSA's red headed twin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestTV 1173 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Their new logo is now posted on their Facebook page. What makes me happiest about this is that the lines of the stem of the 9 almost line up perfectly with the lines in the W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggi 600 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 What makes me happiest about this is that the lines of the stem of the 9 almost line up perfectly with the lines in the W I tried as hard as I could to make that happen, playing with width of the W and the tilt of the stem on the 9 but just couldn't get anything that I liked. Obviously KUSA was the inspiration. I played with a few ideas involving the old square logo from the 80s/90s, but they got a little too "artsy". I'll share them here someday. This was the original color palette I was envisioning before I was award of the colors Troika had picked: A little too traditional - wouldn't work with the direction the look and content was going! Thanks for the kind words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evwalker0901 38 Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 Believe me WXIA gets no special treatment from Tegna, if anything they are treated like WUSA's red headed twin I just feel like they get a lot of special treatment and are given things first (e.g. - graphics, new sets) but I guess I’m partial lol.

Getting new graphics and new sets first isn't good. That means you're the Guinea Pig. Notice Tegna's 2nd-biggest market station, WUSA, just got their new set and graphics today. And they're saving their biggest market station, WFAA, for last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeters 1811 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Okay. I'm confused. They 'debuted' the new set this morning, but at noon and 5, they were back on the temporary set. What's going on? The GM decided they didn't like the set and now they're dismantling it. Bye bye! Seriously though, it was probably some technical issue or last second decision to change something. No big deal.

AdamTheJ 87 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Are You Kidding Me? The GM wants to Retire this set after just One Newscast? That’s BEYOND wrong, IMO. How arrogant of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, it was probably some technical issue or last second decision to change something. No big deal. This may have been planned. I was watching a live stream earlier with Melissa Nord at noon yesterday and Andrea Roane mentioned the noon show would be in the old set the rest of the week. Wonder why?
