Wish stations could add their own spin on the corporate graphics to add a nice balance between uniqueness and uniformity. WAVE fixed up its own in-house take on LIM4.1. They don't like Gray's "corporate graphics", a hodgepodge of garbage looks here and there, replaced frequently. New look?

Oddly enough, WAVE competitor WHAS used a similiar logo for years, until the end of the Belo era when the "11" was taken out of the circle. If Tegna ever rebooted one of their old logos, this one might look good on them now.

I think CBS Local might've worked. The new logo on the standard Gray website banner is atrocious.

ScottSchell 356 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Gray’s graphics debut at 4pm on KWSO. Looks like they are using what KXII on the other side of Texoma uses. Take that back only weather is using the new graphics.

Axiom81 67 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 With WAVE going back to an older logo, I wish Gray-TV would consider sending WCSC-TV back to its former logo..it was more original than the current version.

Admittedly, their current logo is a step towards the logo they had in the 1990s. They deviated greatly from it for a while with blue versions. But I agree.

24994J 5582 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 WCSC only debuted their current logo in 2019. Not brand new, but unlike WAVE, they're not dealing with a 20 year old relic. A special logo for the anniversary, sure, but I highly doubt there'd be something totally new (old). 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17000-the-ever-evolving-gray-graphics-situationthread/page/28/#findComment-269340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
