I’m a news junkie..so what 42 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I'm so glad East High got that set. They really need a good studio. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennTV1983 743 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 My guess is the new setup will be along the lines of what KTHV, WCNC, and (to an extent) KARE all received recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks that because of football anyone who lives out of the Memphis area can’t watch the newscast to see the set debut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not missing much. It's your typical TEGNA set, albeit with some modifications. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The desk design is different, and there's a lot of "industrial" framing in various areas of the new set. Other than that, it's no different from the other TEGNA stations that received the Jack Morton/PDG/blackwalnut/Joe Lamberta design.

TennTV1983 743 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) I definitely noticed the community names. The added beams on the set are a nice touch and a nod to the three bridges (Memphis-Arkansas/1-55, Frisco, & Harahan) on the southern end of downtown Memphis.

Kudos to them trying to not look as cookie cutter and uninspired as the other Tegna looks. Tegna really struggles with studio creativity. They're all so sterile.
