graphics for local news programs  See also  (note: the following
review was based on my observations of the set and graphics on
the 12:00 p.m., 5:00 p.m., and 6:00 p.m. newscasts WKRG-TV
produced this past Monday, April 14th, and the morning newscast
they produced this Tuesday, April 15th)  I found the new set
very spacious and nice, especially the news desk, the brick
walls that surrounded the desk, and the group of monitors behind
the desk that was used for displaying an image of downtown
Mobile based on the time of day for the news program being
broadcast from the set just like the monitors behind the news
desk on the set of WPMI-TV's local news programs (according to a
report about the new set that WKRG-TV broadcast on both April
14th and April 15th, the brick walls were meant to honor some of
Mobile's architecture).  I found some of the new graphics nice
also, including the new scrolling news
