Blargh 2 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 ...and that's a bad thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
channel2 869 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 ...and that's a bad thing? No, in fact I kinda like that. No loud, flashy graphics, monotonous 615 packages (I'm not a fan of 615's more recent work, like "Right Here, Right Now" or "Propulsion"), or excessive network branding. Just simple, mellowed-out presentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColumbusNewsFan 217 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I cannot believe that we're talking about Worst News Operation and not mention KIEM. Horrible Graphics from the 1980's that they still use today in 2008!, Horrible, Shotty and Lazy Website and lackluster and laughable presentation. If That doesn't say WORST News operation I really Don't know what will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squiggyfm1 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Their website looks like someone who hasn't quite mastered English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
channel2 869 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 And it looks right out of 1998. And they still have a 9/11 ribbon in the corner! The Eureka market seems pretty bad as a whole. The CBS station doesn't even have news (and they're on VHF!), the Fox station (I think) simulcasts KTVU's news, and the ABC station probably has no news either.

ElliotJones 52 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 so, having bad graphics and an old website tells us that they have the "WORST News operation"? In this day and age, yeah, pretty much. EDIT: The website that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColumbusNewsFan 217 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 so, having bad graphics and an old website tells us that they have the "WORST News operation"? It's shows how much they care about the product they put out to you everyday. Usually the worst the website. The worst station is. The station website is a straight- up refection of there news operation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeters 1806 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 KIEM's website is stuck in the 90's, just about a decade ahead of their graphics. I LOL'ed when I read on their website that their creative department has Adobe Premiere. Obviously, they don't know how to use it. Also, there's no excuse for having a website like that when there are dozens of content management systems available for free online. I use Joomla, which, even with it's default settings rivals some actual news station websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnya2k6 171 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Four letters: KTVF!! Back in the day (when Northern Television owned them), they had a top-notch operation compared to KATN. Nowadays, it's a mess; no wonder why I get my local news from the Daily News-Miner these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl19ga114sc105 3 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I can very much agree to that.... Oh, and my vote is KWQC.... (a Young Station) Why?...its all explained in this video here (graphics, music, technology, the set, logo (( look at there news truck)) pretty sad Hmm for years this board has trashed stations about their graphics, music, equipment, sets... my main question for everyone is, do you people not understand how EXPENSIVE it is to actually keep a TV station on the air. Music, equipment, technology, building wiring lighting a set all costs a lot of money. Now on top of that lets take KWQC for example they are in market 97 thats not a huge market to start with. It be like someone telling you, every 2 years you have run out and buy a new fridge, car, and put brand new up to code wiring in your house, think you be able to keep up with that? I think that video has good graphics and music for what they got, as do a lot of smaller market stations, in fact I've seen a station in market 115 that had a better look and over all product than all the stations in market 52 at the time. Ok rant over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
