LexTVandRadio 412 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Looks like WTVQ is rolling out a newer "modified" logo and bringing back the "On Your Side" slogan. I personally would've like to seen Newschannel brought back as well. Edited January 20, 2023 by LexTVandRadio bigger logo 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They been pretty damn successful doing that. A logo ain't going to make or break a news operation... Content however will make or break it. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not on WTVQ's website, any of their social media pages, nor their FCC public file. Not only that, but a reverse image search turns up nothing.

You can see it here: https://www.wtvq.com/valentines-day-giveaway/#// Also some coming up on ET shows. Who knows will it actually launch though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still looks like an American parody news outlet from the mid-2000s, to be honest 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, there’s another station that we all know of which uses their (very) long-standing slogan in their logo: 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLNewsExpert 308 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 my 2 cents, I think it's fine really, no need to bring it out of proportions, but speaking of proportions the ABC logo could be smaller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they got sick of being on the viewer's side and decided to instead tell them 'here is your news now, now shut up and watch!' Seriously though, massive improvement; the box logo aesthetic just never aged well and finally the 36 can breathe. It's good for a square app icon, but now that we're moving into circle icons in the Google Play ecosystem they pretty much had to change. Expect many more logo changes of this type. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 740 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 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.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
