This might look inferior to their previous set (and it is in a certain form indeed), which dated back to 2012, but that set (one of the first generation Devlin HD sets), which had an enormous touch-screen whose use was downplayed over the years, had started to show its age. Glad KCRG got a more custom design and didn't get the standard Gray set. But, when seen on-air, the set just looks like a cable-access TV set, and the layered design reminds me of the KMSP set, but poorly imitated.

Rebranding as 13 News but still getting the ugly old Gray graphics hub package (at least they took one of the better ones). Hoping this is just a temporary measure given Gray is slowly preparing to launch the new Matt Quinn standardized graphics package which would mix elements of the Meredith standardized graphics, the Atlanta News First pack, and the WOIO designs.
