Are you for real?
In the world of design those are IDENTICAL.
Show 1000 graphic designers and 1000 would agree with me.

Unless youâre commenting on the sound being completely different, something looking similar on television is pretty much plagiarism or coincidence.

I donât see anything wrong with it to be honest the only thing I see thatâs similar to 9 is the way the win news logo goes in I first thought it was inspired by eyewitness news due to the background all gotta rember that nine looks similar to eyewitness news

Plagiarism or not , if Nine could do anything about it we would have seen a change long ago now.

I actually think Winâs news graphics for the most part look a little more refined than 9âs and therefore prefer the overall presentation. If anything I kind of wish they incorporated a few more elements from Ten to tie in the two news services and obviously to look a little less like their former affiliate. All in all not a bad refresh from them, if not a little surprising.

I think WINs graphics are great! They do look more refined than 9news. Mines vortex is a bit of a mess IMO.

Ok I do sort of agree, perhaps win could oF incorporated something more like the promo videos and images, where they have those straight edged boxes.
Also this is off topic, but why does nine news Illawarra not have a little tv screen

The bottom left cap I believe was when Nine News Illawarra first started and isnât the current one. When the next set of regional news broadcasts came in they modified the background.
So for those two images to be compared is an understatement and inaccurate considering Nine doesnât even use that style anymore

Correct. Just shows that WINâs design is a bit different.
Here is a current Nine News cap.

Yup, Winâs keyed backdrop still looks better.

Nine may not use that style anymore, but itâs obvious WIN News have copied Nineâs previous style when making this new graphics package,

To some extent yes they have, but I donât understand that big fuss about it, itâs not like Nine hasnât copied anything before. That network has no originality and has copied majority from other networks except its made them win in parts of the east coast.
Australian TV in general has no originality (for the most part) and has copied majorly from other networks and/or overseas but I take your point.

Newcastle also has the new look opener and graphics for the mandated ânoodleâ updates.
Also looks similar to those posted above.

I noticed on the WIN News logo on the bottom right of the screen they now mention the region. It says Coffs & Mid North up here.

Looks like the Murrumbidgee has returned to the Riverina opener, new footage but identical shot to the 2012-15 opener.
