    Just saw a promo for a FOX Nation program about the migrant situation and it had Rosanna Scotto in it.

    Rosanna is a contributor on FNC show Outnumbered right now.

  2. During the Super Bowl pregame on FOX, they showed a couple of minutes of an interview with Michael Strahan and Damar Hamlin. It was an excerpt of the full interview which will air on GMA Monday morning. At the end they even mentioned for viewers to watch the full interview on Good Morning America on ABC.

     

    I know Michael Strahan is an employee of both FOX and ABC, but has this happened before where FOX basically ran a promo for ABC?

    This is new for WCBS today. 

     

     

    For the non-CBS ads, do they charge the same ad rates as if those advertisers had full screen ads? I know this has been done during some sports games for a few years, but I am curious to know how that works. If I were an advertiser I would want to have a full screen so that there aren’t other things distracting the viewers from the ad I am paying for.

    For tonight’s 6pm, Sade Baderinwa filled in for Sandra Bookman and joined the rest of the regular weekend night crew. I’m assuming they’ll be on at 10pm as well.

    Is this the first NYE they are on at 10? I remember in the past they were on at 11 but reduced to 30 minutes (instead of 35 minutes for weekday or 60 minutes for weekend)

    As for the “why is flat better for mobile?” question, I’m far from a design expert, but I think this article puts forward a good argument for it (and explains it better than I ever could). Long story short, flat design allows for greater contrast and more flexibility. When you’re working with a smaller amount of space, gradients and gloss can be unnecessarily complicated and distracting. It’s the same reason why IOS and Windows dropped their old glossy designs they had for their operating systems several years back.

     

    I’m not against the old peacock or anything, but on the subject of NBC News, their visual presentation is looking rather dated IMO (although not nearly as dated as ABC). I’m sure they’ll eventually adapt their graphics to suit the new peacock, but I doubt they’re in any rush to do it given the similarities between the logos. I can be nit picky about this stuff myself, but I honestly didn’t even notice the changes when the new promos first aired. That’s how subtle they are IMO. But to each their own.

    Is there not a way to have a flat logo used for mobile devices while keeping the previous logo for over the air? Meaning I’ve seen different logos before when watching local news on a station’s  streaming app (or website) in L3 as compared to watching it at the same time live on my TV. If they have been able to do it until now, why the need to change it fully across the board?

     

    With regard to the CBS logo being too small, It seems counterproductive to the above argument where logos are being made to be able to be seen better on smaller devices. If you can barely see it on the TV because it’s so small, won’t it be harder to see on a smart phone? Just seems odd to me.

  6. WABC news graphics and same ABC7 logo appeared in episode 6 of ABC’s show Emergence. The site wouldn’t let me screenshot it. (Also seen in the recap prior to episode 7).

     

    I’ve seen WNBC graphics on various NBC shows over the years but can’t remember seeing one for WABC. 

  7. I saw that this morning. I actually couldnt believe it at first. Have they ever done a 7 day forecast on WABC before?

     

    nope. Although their website has offered a 7 day forecast for a while.

     

    they have it set up like CBS2 where days 6 and 7 share the same column and appear after the initial first 5 days.
