cg41386 132 Posted November 8, 2019 Posted November 8, 2019 It looks like a mish mosh of the Fox O&O and Sinclair L3s.

Even stranger that their SSA partner KMTR was Sinclair-ized in the last go-around with the Curves package. Usually it's the other way around, but the transition was a little rushed since Newport sold KMTR to Roberts (and SSAed to KVAL), then Fisher was bought by Sinclair months later...

I know there were also plans to move KMTR to KVAL's facility on KVAL hill on the south end of Eugene. As far as I can tell, KMTR is still in its building in Springfield.
Morphtato 43 Posted November 9, 2019 Posted November 9, 2019 Looks like WEYI/WSMH is next in line for the new graphics along with the new "Mid Michigan NOW" branding being unveiled Monday at 6 PM.
TSSZNews 1052 Posted November 9, 2019 Posted November 9, 2019 Re: KPTM - pretty sure news is still coming out of Fresno but unsure if weather is based in Omaha--that may explain the discrepancy.

MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 949 Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 I wonder if they'll do a West Michigan Now branding for WWMT??

Seems like they’re doing it for the duopolies that don’t necessarily have any brand equity or ratings pull - i.e. ABC22/Fox 45 in Dayton. If this were 15 years ago, I could see them doing it in Columbus, but WSYX/WTTE are pretty strong these days in that increasingly boring market.

WEYI/WSMH officially rolled out the new graphics and branding on the 6 PM newscast tonight.
AaronQ 282 Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 Not sure if anyone noticed, but recently KUNS (Univision Seattle) got the current graphics and music. Making the first Spanish language Sinclair station to do so.
Info Junkie 1286 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 KGAN just launched with a horrid black and yellow, and a horrid voiceover:

newsn8te 202 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 YIKES. I kind of like the black and yellow but that voice over made me cringe so hard. Can Sinclair stop with the hideous play button/News now logos.

jd285 53 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 There’s so many things wrong with it. The voiceover, the gold and black in the graphics, the new branding. This is just not a good look.
NEOMatrix 1307 Posted February 5, 2020 Posted February 5, 2020 It's like Sinclair wants to out-News Now Gray.

hfiles 81 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 WLUK debuted the new graphics at 5pm today. They kept Aerial as their theme.

TheRyan 560 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I'm glad Sinclair is continuing to allow WLUK to be autonomous with the news music. The gfx and Aerial actually make a great combo.
