ATLNewsExpert 455 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 WAGA (FOX 5 Atlanta) appeared to be on a temporary set for todays 10 and 11pm newscast, I say appeared as this "temporary" set is very similar to a small set the station used during the early months of the Coronavirus pandemic but hasn't used since. The one thing that caught my eye to think even more this is a temporary set is an extra video screen was added for weather reports. We will have to see over the coming days if this in fact is a temporary set and if a new set is on the way soon.

Weeters 1915 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 It's not a "temporary" set, it's a permanent secondary set. "The Georgia Gang" uses it weekly. And since the secondary set is designed to look like the main set, and is practically brand new, I doubt there's a lot of desire to replace the main set. Maybe a refresh in progress at most. https://www.facebook.com/TheGeorgiaGang/photos/4558208764297598 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18896-waga-on-temporary-set/#findComment-272762 Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATE: I have done some investigating and it is indeed intended as a temporary set, "renovations" are underway on the old set, we will have to wait and see how this will turn out. STAY TUNED!

ATLNewsExpert 455 Posted June 2, 2022 Author Share Posted June 2, 2022 It's been a bit so time for an update. The "updated" set debuted around two weeks ago. The updates are nothing at all, the floor decors have been removed and replaced with an extreme glossy floor while the main screen on the left-hand part of the set has been replaced with a seamless LED one with an ugly overhead wooden border Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18896-waga-on-temporary-set/#findComment-273820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
