A number of posts discussing mocks have been removed from recent pages.
The irony being that actual screen caps of the channel look like a mock someone did in MS Paint in 5 minutes…
I do understand that the ‘new’ channel is designed with mobiles, tablets and browsers in mind over traditional televisions, but their graphics are actually very oppressive on smaller devices. The huge block of red permanently on screen is hugely distracting for no reason, and not particularly user friendly. Sadly this feels like a continuation of what’s happened over the last few years, as more and more graphics in reports and used on screens are designed by journalists based loosely on templates, where a decade ago professionals trained in design would have been involved.
I suspect it shall only get worse - it’s a pretty intrenched, philosophical issue within the corporation now.
