From this article last year, the developer (which is the same one that bought the highrise the station is moving to) is going tear down the old building and redevelop it into apartments.

atlnewsfan03 65 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) The new WOWT set looks very nice. I like the anchor desk table. Hopefully The Other Site may have additional pics of the new set in action. Gray is investing in a lot of its stations I'm already beginning to notice, including stations getting set makeovers, to stations adding additional newscasts to their programming schedules.

ScottSchell 268 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) They have officially launched the new building and set and switched graphics to the usual gray graphics like WMC’s from the 360.

newseider 25 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 I thought it looked like they were reading prompter off camera when I was watching. That picture explains it, not a fan of that setup. Also don’t like how some of the monitors you can see the individual led border lights reflecting off the ground. Needs a light strip diffuser over it. Also you can see the main desk cord in some of the shots, should have been wired to back behind the desk. Overall a much better set. Glad they finally got an upgrade.

WJZY has a better execution of this set IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestTV 1173 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I think it's fine. It works well for Omaha, really isn't a bad design at all, and they tried to add unique features like that view from the brick column. That black support beam could've been handled better, and the prompter setup is just bizarre. I can't imagine that will last for too long. That must have been a cost cutting measure. It's still world's better than that disaster at KMTV. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
