Well… they got some nifty new preview graphics in a light blue color:
Also a new background for use in a multiple person box, not sure how well it shows up but it’s using some of the same light blue color. They’ve had the blue on their jackets for years now. It’s about the same shade that Honda uses for its commercials. Lower Thirds are the same.

I've lost all respect for Scripps at this point.. They just really want to screw everyone: employees, viewers, etc...

Bumping this thread after almost 2 years, but one of the new Hearst-ers in WZVN got the WMUR Hearst package and Hearst Classic theme music today.
What a great improvement for WZVN!

It wouldn't surprise me to see Morgan Murphy move ABC and/or CW to WJMN. It's a far better station to be broadcasting on than both WBKP and WBUP. Also, merging news staffs would be a benefit, since WBKP and WBUP don't have that much to begin with.
Makes sense, since ABC 10 is a bare bones station that does literally nothing news wise....WJMN would do much better for ABC

KKTV made the switch back on 4/4.. Interestingly enough, the CBS eye has not been removed... for now....

Nexstar has sold WJMN to Sullivan's Landing LLC, headed by former Quincy Media head Ralph Oakley, will be run by Morgan Murphy Media... sale is now pending per regulatory matters

I do like the cleaner look of the logo... Some of these boxed and multi-colored logos just don't work anymore.. especially with certain graphics packages....

I do love the implementation of these new weather graphics. Can easily tell if it's for metro or mountains... My biggest 2 gripes: 1) the sidebar 7-day still needs to be updated; 2) the very very choppy animation of the clouds in the 7-day.. ouch

I like this design for the 10-day!
I don't only because the animated weather part is waaaayyy too busy... plus they have only a 30% chance of rain/storms and show the entire day as rain.. Can be very misleading if you can't see the teeny tiny weather icon above...

Seems as though there’s something foul in the air at THE NEWS STATION (WNEP) as a wave of departures have hit recently.
A few months back, popular meteorologist John Hickey abruptly left mid-contract to go into the private sector to continue doing work in weather, mentioning on a video podcast things were not going well behind the scenes and it was time to go.
Claire Alfree left to go to the TEGNA duopoly in Jacksonville in January.
This week it was announced reporter Amanda Eustice is leaving the station after 4 years. Meteorologist Valerie Smock left Montage Mountain to go work in downtown Wilkes-Barre at WBRE/WYOU. And whispers abound that at least 3 more departures are coming in the next few weeks.
You don’t typically see a whole lot of turnover at NEP, as you more often than not see folks there 10+ years at minimum. It’s why the viewership is as rock solid as it’s been. But these past few months have been a whirlwind, and it really makes you wonder just how bad TEGNA has screwed this legacy station up.
Welcome to TEGNA -- They've screwed a slew of legacy stations over, including WTHR and WBNS to name a few...

Laura Velazques moved to Denver after working many years in West Michigan Wood TV for KDVR she only lasted a year in Denver. And Laura moved to become a met at ACCUWeather she is suing them because they laid her off during COVID then she returned to West Michigan to work for Fox17 for about 6 or 7 months and left in Oct of 2021. Rumors are that she in the ND didn't get along they were co-workers at Wood TV why Lara didn't last long at Fox17.
I saw former WWMT weekend met Brian James doing the weather from time to time for Wood TV when Ellen was off since she just had a baby. Brian James didn't last all that long with WWMT I think his wife didn't like the weather or had issues because they moved back to Texas. Brian is from Michigan his parents got to see him do the weather. I wonder if that is what Brian will be doing for the smaller Nexstar TV stations around the country doing those tape weather segments.
Interestingly enough, according to her LinkedIn, Velasquez is now a freelance meteorologist for WLWT

Nexstar owns KXAN and WGN, where there‘s now an opening for another meteorologist since Tom left and Demetrius got bumped to nights from the midday shift. Maybe there?
My thoughts exactly.

Their story says he’s going somewhere with “very different weather,” which would seem to indicate a station in the Northeast.
I was thinking the same thing... It will be a nice step up for him

Question regarding the term 'sister stations'
in General TV
Posted · Edited by MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie
Added Wiki link
Sister stations are stations that are owned by the same company as them. For example WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids is the sister station to WLNS in Lansing -- both are owned by Nexstar. WNBC in NYC is sister to KNBC in LA -- both are owned by NBCUniversal... etc etc etc
