NotInTV 63 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 With the 1PM broadcast on 02/27/2020, KSWB-TV (Tribune > Nexstar) launched an updated logo & new opens (No more box kite), a new L3 (Similar to WJW, but not exact), a new bug, and new ticker (From the Nexstar NBC package), and new music "Beyond" by Stephen Arnold. This appears to be a minor update as most of the other on-screen graphics continue to use the Tribune Fox package. I thought this was a strange move considering the possible sell-off of the station to Fox.
CircleSeven 1962 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Watching their 7pm on the stream, they're using Beyond for the music.
24994J 5660 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 That bug is so rough, and that too-tall ticker is textbook Nexstar.
Georgie56 3333 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 It's the Tribune Fox graphics with WJW's L3 and the ticker from the Nexstar NBC graphics. If they change the bug, it could look better. This is what KTVI/KPLR should've had.
MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 955 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 I'm not mad at this... there can be improvements but not terrible
SFTV 539 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Finally the bug matches the mic flags. The box kite is finally gone.

Yeah that bug is a little too hard, the better 3D version was nicer it could be flat like WJW and WGHP in (Cleveland and Greensboro, North Carolina respectively) However I do think the lower thirds could be a little more foxy using the Nexstar NBC Ticker a little whack the color scheme could be blue. But really it's not bad opens could have been not touched not super impossed looking with the bold So San Diego.
Yankees4life 563 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Nice to see them using the Beyond music

I am working on getting a video uploaded. I thought this was a strange move considering the possible sell-off of the station to Fox. I agree. I honestly doubt they'll getting sold to FOX anytime soon. A little off topic here though I do agree FOX needs to own some non-NFL markets that would be profitable for maybe not this (well if it goes through before election day.) or next election season, in terms of ad revenue in battleground states from candidates I have some stations in mind WLFL or WRDC or current Affiliate WRAZ in Raleigh (good startup station or buy another independent station in the market), KWSB San Diego, KVVU in Las Vegas (even though it's about to be an NFL market it still would be good), KPDX Portland, Oregon, and WDRB Louisville.
TheRyan 560 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 I think Propulsion was a better fit for KSWB, but I can see why they got Beyond. I will say that this is what KTVI should've got...
24994J 5660 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Dang, that ticker needs to slow the heck down.
newstime 39 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 This is like the bastardized version of their old graphics. Kinda looks cheap. That ticker is ugly. The font clashes with the rest of the look. That “FOX 5 NEWS SO San Diego” banner looks out of place. And what’s with those rounded blue bars on the sides of that banner? Barf. They seriously need to ditch “SO San Diego.” It’s so late 2000s. The logo would be 100 times better without that white border around it. Honestly, if they weren’t gonna go with a completely new look, they didn’t have to mess with the previous graphics. Still better than those blue Scripps graphics though.
Bsean 160 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 No update to the weather graphics though... Just watched at 11p. And where is Aloha still???

Still better than those blue Scripps graphics though. It sounds so valley girl, I'm surprised that their slogan has lasted this long. Not a bad package, could be better but it could have been much worse too. Very curious when KGTV San Diego will debut theirs Scripps graphics.
MorningNews 1528 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 There’s no way the ticker is moving that fast - Is the video sped up?

IndyNewsOpens 83 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Not great and not bad. I wonder if WXIN will get this package, or a modified version of it since KSWB and WXIN have similar packages.

They've been teasing a slightly updated logo in various spots for several months now.
