WEWS Website Redesign

You've heard right - hell has frozen over. Cleveland's Scripps-owned ABC affiliate WEWS rolled out a new look for their website, NewsNet5.com, today, replacing their old design which had been in use for a good part of the 2000s, and was often criticized for showing its age.

This may actually be a better design than the Inergize Digital ones the rest of the Scripps stations use. Looks naked, but it's doable.

 

[st]Now if they can learn to encode their videos into Flash, then they'd be in business.[/st]

 

EDIT: After taking a second look, it appears WEWS is using Fox Interactive for their website now (or something along that line).

I'll take naked over the POS that was the old site.

 

That said, I can't help but wonder if Internet Broadcasting got tired of having that reminder of their past hanging around and issued WEWS an ultimatum to either pay for a redesign or find a new host.

Where do you see that? It looks more like the base design used by most of their newspaper sites [example].

Click on any story that has a video attached to it. The video players are similar.

 

Based on the example you showed me, this might not be a Fox Interactive site, but rather Scripps is now doing their own station websites in-house.

Thank God. It's about time...
