WJBK graphics package
WJBK graphics package
It wasn’t discussed here before, but WJBK upgraded its graphics and music last year. It’s the same as the other Fox O&Os. I like the upgrade. At least Fox spends money on its stations.

Re: WJBK graphics package
They're actually notorious for being really cheap with their stations.

You can’t starve the hand that feeds you lol.
Besides, the station just upgraded its graphics package and music for its newscasts. They got a new set not that long ago. It can’t be accurate to say Fox doesn’t spend any money on their stations. They are better than most.
Not sure what CBS does, but I heard they were the worst, as far as being cheap.
Re: WJBK graphics package
The group updated their music and graphics for EVERY station to keep everything standardized it’s not just 2 getting new graphics and music... that’s unbelievably and undeniably cheap. It’s far more expensive to do music and graphics for each station individually. Yes new sets happen once in a while... but they don’t spend money hand over fist like it’s 1980... Fox’s newscasts at the local level on their O&O’s always feel third rate...CircleWXYZ wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 11:40 amNS8401 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 10:07 amThat’s about all they spend money on...

Most do that now. NBC, CBS, Fox, Scripps, Tenga.
Oh and BTW, WJBK’s current set is not exactly like other Fox O&O s. Maybe similar to others but not exactly the same.

Re: WJBK graphics package
But woulnd't that make sense in you're a national chain... to have everything standardized and a similar look to all the outlets? Wouldn't they each end up with something better than if they tried to go the more expensive route and do each station individually?NS8401 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 12:12 pmThe group updated their music and graphics for EVERY station to keep everything standardized it’s not just 2 getting new graphics and music... that’s unbelievably and undeniably cheap.

Re: WJBK graphics package
Yes and no.. packages used to be much more market specific and included elements that were specific to the area the station served...km1125 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 19, 2019 9:40 amBut woulnd't that make sense in you're a national chain... to have everything standardized and a similar look to all the outlets?
