mardek1995 200 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Really. I thought WFLX was the only one that still hadn't updated their graphics. I'm guessing they're not going to because, WFLX is a sister station to WPTV, owned by Scripps. And what about Tuscon News Now? Have they updated their graphics? Or if they haven't, when are they (and WFLX) going to update their graphics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 1844 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Btw, I checked out WIS-TV on Wikipedia and it seems like they have changed their slogan to LIVE. Local. NOW. as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexagonal10 84 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Btw, I checked out WIS-TV on Wikipedia and it seems like they have changed their slogan to LIVE. Local. NOW. as well. I'm pretty sure that was used by another Raycom station, I always thought that even though the graphics are generic and corporate but with some minor changes here and there, small markets will look quite nice. But this also takes years to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L3rds 6 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Why is there so much space between the L3s and the ticker? Why is there even a ticker at all for the late news, especially in a market such as Hattiesburg? Boy, I thought it was bad that WOIO brought back a ticker for EVERY newscast (a tradition that should've died with the Action News era). Â There's room for another ticker (breaking news or severe weather) to fit in the empty space if it's needed. That way they can have both tickers up at the same time.

Viper550 268 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 On a related note, WTOL has killed off the Toledo News Now name for its website and separate news branding for American Spirit Media sidecar WUPW. WUPW also, for the first time since 1999, is branding as Fox 36 again. Curiously, it appears as if they gave a nod to their history here, because the "36" numbering is similar to the logos they used in the 90's before branding as just Fox Toledo. Â Â It seems as if WTOL has the blue version, and WUPW seemed to be using the orange version before this change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexTVandRadio 412 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 The 36 always has to touch. Just look at my profile picture. Not quite the old WTVQ logo, but close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 744 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I saw a newscast on both KOLD and KMSB on NewsOn and they both have the new Raycom graphics  I'm 99.9% sure that KOLD has been using them for awhile now.. like several months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Looks like WLOX is the only station that I have noticed that hasn't completely switched, excluding the Drewry stations and KNIN. WFLX has yet to even switch to the new website format more less the new graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFLX has yet to even switch to the new website format more less the new graphics. Â WFLX has the same graphics from pre-2011 and Raycom graphics have switched twice since then. Don't expect KNIN to get them since they've been so KIVI/Journal-esqued for a long time now. Â EDIT: WLOX has them for weather graphics so they're halfway there.

Correct -- WLOX hasn't completely switched.  Also, I just noticed KAIT hasn't completely switched either. They're still using them for weather only.

NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 WLOX is now using the new graphics for news as of today in addition to weather. They are also referring to themselves as WLOX News Now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I believe the new graphics and logo debuted at the same time. The new Tucson News Now logo debuted prior to the graphics and station logo.

Shaun 2 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 To recap on some of the WBRC comments: I love the new WBRC logo and branding! A little throwback feel with their vintage sign, just wish it was the exact same font though. I like the package overall. A few things bother me though. They have made some tweaks with the ticker. Sometimes I think they now add a second ticker from another package which looks odd. Their volunteer weather watchers graphics are a mess, though, way too busy and unreadable. I also notice WBRC has changed the weather icons from when they first switched, which look a little weird not matching the rest of the package anymore.
