They went the same route that KTVI/KPLR went (Using the same graphics package). No surprise they went with this package. I don't think the actual package is bad. It's just we're used to seeing it on small market Fox affiliate and not markets the size of Denver or St. Louis. And I disagree, this isn't close to the rock bottom days of "The Deuce".

TheRyan 560 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 It could be worse, but I'm very disappointed (though not surprised) they used the same package on both stations. The Fox pkg is alright on KDVR. But I would've preferred they revived the 2011 KWGN logo and adopted the KOIN gfx on Channel 2. At least they kept unique music pkgs instead of merging those. On KWGN, though, the logo animation is a bit odd. And seriously...what's up with the multiple trademark icons? The "We're On It" slogan needs to go...it sounds something a college newscast would say (although there are college newscasts with much better slogans than that).

Not to mention KFQX in Grand Junction. Every Fox affiliate in the state has the same package.

TheRyan 560 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Not to get the thread off-topic, but I have to ask... Is it normal for KDVR to begin their news at 6:56...FOUR minutes to the top of the hour? I'm used to seeing things begin something like two minutes before, but FOUR? That's seems a bit early even by that metric. They could easily fit a full commercial break there and still begin the 7am news before the top of the hour.

Greggo 354 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I’ve seen local stations across the country run promos taking jabs at that “pre-recorded news from NYC” but it’s kinda cheap/petty to see the anchors do it live in a newscast.

DENDude 217 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Yes that is common for KDVR, they have been starting 4 mins early since late June. And yes Mr. Yuhnke says it every day. There sister station KWGN lately has been starting the 7AM newscast at 7:01AM. That KFQX logo doesn't look right with the graphics they are using--OUCH!

It's going to be a hard sell having the exact same gfx pkg on multiple stations in the same market. I could see a NN "inspired" look on some stations, but I highly doubt we see it roll out beyond that. Even though we now have certain markets that are adopting one gfx package on multiple stations per market (St. Louis and Denver), I see it being an individual station decision...not a corporate trend. I like how Nexstar has a wide assortment of gfx packages for stations to choose from (same thing with Gray). I hope they allow that to continue. Besides, you need NewsNation to have a unique look to stand out from the crowd. Otherwise, they would run the risk of watering it down if stations took on the same look.

Both of y'all bring up very good points. I think as long as the Localized version of the NN graphics is different from the main NN graphics (for example time/temp bug matching up with the L3rds on a local newscast) then I'd be ok with seeing a Localized version of the NN graphics on some Nexstar stations. I also think that if Nexstar were to create say an NBC version of the NN graphics, an ABC version of the NN graphics and so on that would work fine too. I do not expect all of the remaining ex-Tribune stations to get this pack though Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17429-tribune-nexstarization/page/10/#findComment-250969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It is not different. Nexstar doesn't spend more than $20K on a graphics package. Even a good quality one costs no less than $80K.

24994J 5577 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 An unbranded news clip was used in an article on WGN Radio's website, and I'm curious what station has adopted a recolored version of the Nexstar Fox graphics. Honestly, it reminds me of the color scheme for WGN9's investigative graphics (and could easily be recolored with their blue and purple shades and feel right at home in Chicago), but couldn't really find any other station in Illinois using this variation. https://wgnradio.com/news/illinois-extends-drivers-license-renewal-period/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_source=facebook.com&fbclid=IwAR0Q2zfc4WxQSBhTPytSfAmhmPEr2r15-mqUd5XWdUJ8fNyzSwxv4q2zasw Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17429-tribune-nexstarization/page/10/#findComment-251272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
