tyrannical bastard 3458 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Gray is treating their much larger stations to better packages, while the smaller ones seem to be getting the "leftovers"...i.e. more dated and recycled graphic packages. I like WBTV's new look....it's clean, simple, and serves as a nice evolution from the prior Raycom look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stations get 4 options to from Gray, no customs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given WOIO's lack of success and Gray's habit of changing the looks frequently (once a new look comes online), it's only a matter of time before they get one too. Maybe in a year or two...

CLETVFan 363 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 At least the current graphics package at WOIO are a lot better than the "Cleveland 19" look and any of the "Action News" looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tw-804 190 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Another station has the new Gray package: WWBT here in Richmond. They're using the graphics that are currently on WMC, WLBT and others (personally, I wish WWBT would use the current graphics on WDBJ or the ones on WHSV). They've started using them on the evening newscasts last night (noticed that on the NewsON app). Music is still The Rock by Stephen Arnold Music, but Inergy continues to survive on sports and some segments. https://www.nbc12.com/live/ UPDATE (10:07PM): Watching the Fox News at 10 on WRLH - produced by WWBT - and they're now using the graphics package that are currently on WDBJ7, WITN and others. Yes, Gray Television graphics on a Sinclair station. Remember, WWBT has a news-share agreement with WRLH (it started in 1994). Also, Gari's Daily News package is out and the Sinclair News Package (the Curves version) is in! Unfortunately, the 10pm and the morning newscast at 7am (Fox Richmond Morning News) doesn't stream on WRLH's website nor WWBT's.

MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 748 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Speaking of WDBJ I wish more Gray stations would pick up their graphics package, especially their weather graphics... I think the Raycom stations would've looked better with that packaage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1944 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 New Station. Watching WXIX livestream now. They're using the same graphic package WMC picked up. They're also switched the music to Guardian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, the WVLT package would be best for WVUE IMO given the orange/blue tinge on the logo and New Orleans colors (although Gray has never used purple or green that I can tell with this package).

NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I am certain WDBD in Jackson was updated before WXIX. It’s hard to see FOX40’s newscasts since they aren’t streamed anymore. They probably switched when WLBT switched several weeks ago. WDBD’s looks like the WLOX package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine WDAM will be switching soon....could they be getting the WLOX look? They simulcast WLOX (ABC)'s 4pm show on their ABC subchannel.

Those are really nice opens and graphics. Was hoping they would ditch the "NOW" in FOX19 News Now. Can we get these opens for WKYT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
