mightynine 290 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I'd argue the look of CBS News (streaming) is a better implementation than what's on network, outside of some minor nitpicks - IMO, the logo bug is too big, the little programming indicator is too small. I think if they adjusted it so that the programming indicator was within the box, it would help, and they could go back to what they have now when the programming isn't live.

MediaZone4K 2168 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) The KDKA black and gold is the best looking that I've seen so far amongst the CBS O&Os. It's a departure from the usual blue or white box look on most TV news casts. That being said it would look nice if each individual CBS affiliate could have their own tweaks to the standard graphics package for individuality. As for the CBS News streaming graphics, it's the typical white box flatness, but it works nonetheless. really digging the textured world map element to the CBS News Mornings orange package. Overall the rebrand works though I thought they'd call it something like "CBS News+" to distinguish the national streaming feed from the TV network.

Geoffrey 860 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 There has been chatter about CBS O&Os possibly dropping channel numbers in favor of branding such as "CBS News New York". But a new paint job for WCBS's Chopper 2 shows a "CBS 2 News New York" branding: https://www.instagram.com/p/CfuXtkDO6S7/ Chopper 2, which the station shares with WNYW, has not had branding on it for many years. If the new graphics are indeed launching this fall, it would make sense that they paint the chopper in advance in order to get shots for opens and promos. (I doubt the mouthful "CBS 2 News New York This Morning" will be the actual newscast title format.) I'm not a fan of dropping channel numbers so I'm happy that this seems to not be happening. I hope the upcoming look is much more well thought out than the current group package, which felt sloppy and dated the day it launched. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17216-new-cbs-oo-look-coming-soon/page/9/#findComment-274913 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has not yet been definitive evidence of dropping local branding wholesale. AFAIK, the only mentions made about dropping local branding were comments on this website, and that was nothing more than speculation. Of course, my theory is also speculation (they could theoretically drop local branding on air and online while keeping it in the sky), so I wouldn’t take this as a sign of anything until we have a better idea of the upcoming new look. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17216-new-cbs-oo-look-coming-soon/page/9/#findComment-274916 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance 2 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I'm guessing the graphics team is still getting used to the new lower thirds because that's a lot of empty space for the text to be that condensed. Not really liking the extra large logo, but that's on par with the national network design so it's unsurprising that local is trying to mimic the general style. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17216-new-cbs-oo-look-coming-soon/page/9/#findComment-275510 Share on other sites More sharing options...
