The waving flag next to the live bug is silly, but feels on-brand, in a hilarious way. The logo in the bug is way too big. The time rotates with the stock numbers. It is "cleaner," if uninspired. I like the clean portrait effect on national outlet reporter standups. But if the entire point is to be live in front of something, it defeats the purpose to have the background be blurry.

Definitely reminds me of how everyone quickly incorporated flags into their graphics. (Not just Fox News: CNN had it in their lower-thirds, and MSNBC eventually rebranded as "America's News Channel" with the peacock as a flag instead of the usual colors.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightynine 286 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 In a press release, Michael Corn, President of News at NewsNation, said, “NewsNation’s mission is to provide fair and unbiased news coverage, and that’s the way we will approach this important debate. We take this responsibility very seriously and are proud to help inform and educate voters and to contribute to the democratic process.” Dude gonna really sit there with a straight face and say “fair and unbiased coverage” with Megyn Kelly as a moderator. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrschimpf 2051 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 The entire network subsists on FUD, especially on crime, which is incredibly over-covered even compared to FNC. It's balanced towards the local news side that can't stop mainlining bleed-leading journalism even as viewers have long tired of overcoverage of news they absolutely cannot use (Alex Murdaugh, accidents on roads they'll never see in their lives, and UFOs). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GodfreyGR 493 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Less than 15 minutes into the GOP Debate on NewsNation/The CW... A couple audio issues that for a small market Sinclair station, it would just be Wednesday night, but really make this national debate minor league. Mics not adjusted before going live, a moderator coughing and clearing their throat while a candidate is giving their remarks... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also failed to include a simple audible 90 second time, or it isn't picked up by the mics (which is another flop on its own). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if there is a timer tone, but when they show the full moderator desks, you can see the "stoplight" timers at the bottom corners of the desks. Graphics wise... Smart move putting the "NewsNation" logo right in the middle... The L3 will likely be cut out on the cable/morning news shows, but will be prominently featured in the TikTok/Reels clips. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the centered logo looked silly, but this logic actually makes some sense to me so maybe NewsNation thought it through more than I originally gave them credit for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the debate's other iffy sponsors...they lucked out big time in getting their logo as visible as it was since the Free Beacon and Rumble were its main sponsors and them, along with Megyn's SXM show, only got bookend mentions. Could have been a lot worse for them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize that Blake Burman took over as moderator of The Hill on Sept. 5th last year. At first I was thinking this move was going to have an impact on Leland's ability to host the show, but here it turns out he's been gone from the show for a while. As for weekday Morning in America, man that show just keeps going through so many changes. I guess ending at 9am ET brings them in line with a typical cable news morning show schedule. Weird seeing them shift back to a solo-host format. I figured that they were going to keep two anchors as multiple anchors are pretty standard for mornings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew 147 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 They should go for big names for Morning in America because right now it really lives up to its abbreviation of MIA. I know it will never happen but Amy Robach & TJ Holmes are free outside of their podcast. It would be in the ratings at least for a short period. Elizabeth Vargas & Chris Cuomo could make appearances and be like the old GMA of the mid 2000's to 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty Muck 4162 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 5 hours ago, ABC 7 Denver said: What was to be gained by blowing up WGNAmerica? WGN America had a near-national reach but was run as a low-rent ION with expensive, lengthy syndicated contracts of mostly copuganda shows and a second-tier Tim Allen sitcom (as their inability to rid themselves of Blue Bloods clearly shows). It was incompatible with the rest of the Nexstar portfolio and needed to be blown up. NewsNation is also turning a pretty good profit.
