Some tidbits:


[*]Lyon will still be HQ to the French, Russian and Persian newsrooms
[*]English ops to move to Brussels, German ops to move to Berlin, Spanish ops to Madrid, Italian ops to Rome and Portuguese ops to Lisbon; 50 journalists from these newsrooms will move
[*]Lyon will now be one of the channel's six "expanded bureaus" rather than HQ
[*]Master control, production and gallery facilities gradually moving to these cities, with increasingly personalised feeds being considered
[*]Guillaume Dubois, who oversaw BFM TV's launch and LCI's move to free TNT, has been named CEO (such promotion was made last June).

The tweet bar shows the same 10-15 tweets, almost all of which are just from the AP or AFP, not really even any from Euronews or its correspondents.

The channel has gone back to its roots of showing mostly a jukebox of voiceover-only stories, which I think is fine. But then, seven minutes in, an anchor popped up in the big Lyon studio to do an explainer on Russia's military offensive.  There are also a handful of segments with the popular online video style with large text over b-roll as production music plays. The same stories also then ran in the same exact order barely ten minutes later. Nothing coheisve, and no presentation elements to entice you to keep watching.

Back to Euronews' new look, it looks like the B-roll voice-over updates are returning for good. Additionally, the online video style for content is a part of that reorganisation of production workflows; they are moving into a single workflow to produce content for TV, social media and digital platforms, according to the channel:

Quote:As the consumer shifts to mobile first consumption, the growth in importance of vertical video and captioned content has increasingly diverged from the traditional screen design and ticker format of television news. The importance of creating original digital first content that truly adapts to all screens including television, offering access to the output of our 12 core local language news teams as well as the specialist digital journalism of our Next, Green, Travel and Culture teams across all devices, has led Euronews to change the way we produce, publish and present our content.

As a multi-lingual content pioneer, Euronews has today transformed its production techniques, screen design and content formats and is proud to unveil our innovative approach to delivering truly digital first formats to all screens. With a square mobile centric screen design, centralized language captions, a vertical twitter style scroll bar, clock and other features only visible when viewed on the TV screen format, this enables a tailored experience by screen from a single production workflow. In addition to transforming our on screen design for television, this new approach is expected to drive a more than 30% increase in our digital display inventory and will more than double our onsite video inventory during 2023.

This introductory blog post from Euronews' Commercial website is also reporting a reduction of news content on weekends in favour of more pre-recorded programming. The blog post also has a video reel of the new content and format, also posted on Euronews' YouTube page:

For enthusiasts, Euronews' YouTube has also published the full brand track, alongside the three weather tracks used interchangeably during the Meteo reports. I'm hearing these tracks come from David Lowe and Sam Worskett, who also did the 2014 package and its updates.

Apparently the Spanish feed has given up on showing tweets altogether for sometime:

While it (along with the French feed) has an option of "breaking news" label on the scrolling tweet list if it chooses to:

Maybe it's just me, but I don't like the way the location and its time are separated in boxes on either side of the screen. I'd prefer it if the location remains intact with the time on the bug (like normal), or has the "LIVE" text, instead of the clock simply... hanging there by itself.

I wish the English feed would remove the tweets as well. They clutter up the screen and are completely unnecessary.

A big week for Euronews. On Tuesday, the channel’s newly expanded Brussels newsroom (home to a beefed up politics team and the new base for the English service) goes live with a series of special programmes.

Is he correct though. I looked at that frequency and it's not there yet.

An update to my previous post from this morning.

The frequency quoted on X is showing a duplicate of France 24 English HD.
