the new look

I love CNN, I do, but...

It looks like BBC. In fact, it looks like the poor man's BBC World.
The headlines in two lines? Why? Especially when you can minimize the font a little and stretch it over one line.
But, whatever. Whatever floats their boat, I guess.

I woke up Saturday morning to Hala at the desk. XD
She couldn't seem to get over the new graphics, making note of it in the middle of World News, the weather, talking to field reporters, and also with World Sport.
Oh, Hala. You clearly were not clued in on what the new graphics would look like. But you didn't need to constantly remind the viewers.
It's new. We get it.
But: I got my first dose of the relaunch with Hala. Yay me.

The names of the anchors and reporters are tiny, though. And there are those cubes freaking everywhere.
Thank heavens the ticker replacement is neat and tiny.

Have I mentioned that I love the new Inside the Middle East promo? (March 4!)
But doesn't it remind you of the Eye on the Middle East promo? ;p

I always love to read your comments.
They always have some logic even when, in some, the heart speaks more than the mind. I’m always looking forward for what is going to be next. Thanks and keep on… please.
