MikePulse 315 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Yeah, the slogan's kind of clunky. One other thing, they included the date in the open. Including the current date in pre-open newscast teasers was unfortunately something that went out in the late 1990s; KTRK's graphics packages in the 1980s are the only instances I can think of in which the date was included in the main opening sequence. That aside. It all looks so good, you forget the corporate overlords that own them. (Mission statement notwithstanding) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsanchor26 107 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I see they ditched the American flag on the L3s! The bug is still backed with the American flag graphic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainBAL 71 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I'm not only impressed with the new graphics but the new studio! Very blue, wow. Now they have to get rid of that storm watch graphic... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestTV 1064 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Not bad at all. Text may be a bit large. What really disappoints me is that they didn't get rid of that awful music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Journalist 891 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 However, who in the right F***ING mind would think of a slogan "Connecting People with Content Everywhere" ? Like seriously ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1800 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Better than the Sinclair slogan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColDayNews 436 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Their Fox 45 News logo reminds me of WRGT’s late 90s/early 00s logo. Old and clunky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Here’s a montage of the new graphics and most of the set. So the animated American flag isn't totally gone, it's just now faded behind the logo bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfc513 216 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I feel like Hothaus made these graphics, judging by how these are animated. (Yes, I know it’s unbelievable) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 2925 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 WEAR has overhauled their weather graphics to the new ones like WBFF's package, although they still are with the 16x9 variant of the original "Curves" package. Here's a sample from their radar: Have there been any other Sinclair stations to take the plunge? Usually the WX computers are before and separate of the rest of the graphics, due to their specialized purpose.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 514 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) You can add KEPR to the newest version of the graphics (only the weather right now... still has the Fisher graphics for news) EDIT: KIMA also has the same setup as sister KEPR -- Newest weather graphics, Fisher for news graphics Edited January 1, 2019 by MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abric 131 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Just to bump this. WJLA started to use the new graphics for mainly weather and promos in the past couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They clearly have some bugs to sort out but the animations are a big improvement over the previous look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
