  1. With the FOX O&O's getting the new graphics package about 2 weeks ago... it still remains to be seen if those stations could be seeing updates made to their current news sets, or if new FOX O&O set designs could and might be in the works. WITI used to be a FOX O&O station, before being sold to Local TV back in 2007. There are several U.S. TV stations that need new news sets... and the stations that I'm hoping could and might be getting new sets... WFLA Tampa Bay - The Media General-owned NBC station has had its current set since 2000, when it moved to its present day location. WTVC Chattanooga - The Sinclair-owned ABC station (formerly owned by Freedom) has had its current set since 2000, when it moved to its present day location. WJLA D.C. - The Allbritton-owned ABC station has had its set for the last 10 years, when it moved to its present day location. WJZ Baltimore - The CBS O&O station could use a new look, similar to the other CBS O&O (either Jack Morton's PDG or FX Design Group)... not sure about CBS O&O graphics... but don't really see the station retiring long-time "Chroma Cues" music. I could picture 4 Gannett-owned stations getting new sets... WXIA Atlanta, WUSA D.C., KUSA Denver, and WKYC Cleveland. KXAS DFW will get its new set in late 2013, when the new broadcast facility opens. KNSD San Diego will likely need a new set eventually. Eric

  2. The new Fox O&O graphics are terrible. Can't believe they dropped the rotating cube Chris
