Morning News today:

A sign of things to come with different font on this weather graphic?

It appears changes are on foot… :eyes:

Appears to be the same font as the new On-Air Presentation too.

Guess the news font will look stretched and terrible like all the multichannels then

Hope not. That font is horrendously generic.

When should we expect the new 7 news logo?

Embarrassing. Shit like this fuels the fire for conspiracy theorists.

Broad guess: Probably sometime within the next few weeks.

A more specific guess: The changed font on the weather graphics spotted during today’s edition of Seven Morning News suggests that we might even see the new look on-screen as early as Monday. The last major graphics change to Seven News happened on 8/8/2016 for the first full week of the Rio Olympics. And since 27/7/2020 was supposed to be the start of the first full week of Tokyo 2020…

Of course, only time will tell how right or wrong these predictions turn out to be!

Just what I was thinking…

I just hope they drop the hideous drone shot of Marvel Stadium and all the cranes in the background as the titlecard in Melbourne

I have a bigger feeling that this likely new Seven News logo will be part of this Seven Network rebrand… But the fonts of ths… Eh.

The banner above the News and Public Affairs category on 7plus has been updated with the new font as well.

Whyyyyy. That font has no character or authority whatsoever.

Ugh, and it’s a single banner image (not a background with separate text/logo element layered on top) which means that the rest of the package is barely going to change.

If there are going to be any changes, it looks like Sunday/Monday might be the day.

Will be much of the same old crap, including everyone’s favourite scanlines.

Yeah, I’m probably expecting to see another “half relaunch” from Seven News whereby the logo + supers and some other graphics will be updated on Monday while core elements like the titlecards won’t be updated for another six months.

Y’know I usually like Mondays, but I’m somewhat dreading this one.

All this over a font…
