TexasTVNews 1379 Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 Temporary I've been watching CBS 11 News at 4, 5 & 6pm and they are anchoring in a temporary news set and they going to get a brand new set in which it would take weeks to finished. I called Doug Dunbar and asked after the 4pm news and he told me that CBS 11 News is going HD. I'm about 50-50 sure that there going HD.
DFW11anchorman 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Posted August 20, 2007 Well, if he told you they're going HD...it's probably true. Did they move into the temp set today? And is it part of the TXA21 set? I've moved out of Texas for school so I'd love to see some screencaps.
TexasTVNews 1379 Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 Well, CBS 11 are using the temporary set tonight and through the rest of the few weeks, so I don't think that the CBS 11 anchors aren't using the TXA 21 News set. I spoke to Doug again and he told me that it is official that they going HD when the new set is finished.
Gulf_Broadcasting 0 Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 hold on ??? KTVT will be going HD? i figured KDFW would be next. not the 2nd worst tv station in DMA # 6. (not including that joke of a newscast, KDAF)

Not to be a stickler for rules but doesn't this post go against the Broadcast Trade Secrets Policy?
Que 73 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Don't forget KXAS is doing the same thing. New HD set and new HD graphics.
first on fox 18 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Well, CBS 11 are using the temporary set tonight and through the rest of the few weeks, so I don't think that the CBS 11 anchors aren't using the TXA 21 News set. I spoke to Doug again and he told me that it is official that they going HD when the new set is finished. Not to be a stickler for rules but doesn't this post go against the Broadcast Trade Secrets Policy? No, there was an article about it already on tvnewsday, so this information is public.
Gulf_Broadcasting 0 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Don't forget KXAS is doing the same thing. New HD set and new HD graphics. hold on. i know KXAS is getting a new set, but i didn't know it was supposed to be HD, along with new HD graphics. I thought they were just getting a new set.
DFW11anchorman 0 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 KXAS and KTVT are both going HD. I don't know a date for KXAS, but KTVT/KTXA are set for September 24th.

jdcnow 14 Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Just curious >> Are they going to drop the In The Groove WCCO Theme, and pick up a real news package with more than 1 theme? And if GO is going to do the graphics, then would the KTVT people PLEASE do better L3s to go along with them. I would like to see KTVT pick up WCCO's Hothaus graphics, and just change the red to blue.

I would like to see KTVT pick up WCCO's Hothaus graphics, and just change the red to blue. KTVT will be dropping the current news theme. They will be getting "fresh, new music" along with a new set and graphics according to Steve Mauldin.
jdcnow 14 Posted September 4, 2007 Posted September 4, 2007 It better be CBS Enforcer! Please oh please let it be the WBBM rock version. ;D It would be nice to hear some of Gari's stuff again after 20 years of being out of North Texas, when KDFW dropped Hello back in '87 for the ever-crappy Yours Truly hospital theme. (Go to SouthernMedia, pull up KDFW's file and listen to the 1 open they have...you'll know what I mean: critical condition, very critical.)
