Refreshed Hearst package

[MidwestTV 1236]

Unless this is unique to WMUR, Hearst appears to be updating its look. Less diagrid, more curves.

I'm sure this has always been the case exclusively for WMUR

WMUR has a unique package.

Yes, MUR needs to have something that's distinct from the main Hearst look used on WCVB so there isn't viewer confusion. Has been that way for 20+ years now.

It has kind of a Gray feel to the package in some ways.

The WMUR update aside, Hearst's package is one that has aged incredibly gracefully over the years.

WCVB and, to a lesser extent, WMTW and WPTZ/WNNE.

 

Basically, it's the curse of a large chunk of New Hampshire being in Boston's shadow. If there was just a little more distance between Manchester and Boston -- say, ten or twenty miles -- things might be different. WNNE would still be an NBC affiliate, WNHT would still exist as a CBS affiliate, and WMUR would have the standard Hearst graphics package.

WESH would generally be the first to roll out new graphics, i.e. since the hub is there and historically, they have been the first. If new graphics do roll out eventually, it starts there.

Question:

 

Does WESH also do all the promos for the other Hearst Stations as well?

They have their own promotions producers in each market.

I hope the best for WZVN from someone living in a market with an Hearst station.

Good, WZVN had been using there old package for quite some time.
