Looking at the screenshots / videos, they're not that much of an improvement on the last lot. It bugs me how graphics seem to getting bigger on some channels now with squashed text for general reporting or literally having the headline then a strap underneath.
Personally, I thought the best graphics CNNI had were this www.youtube.com
It's criminal how short the 2006 package was used. Arguably the the best CNN International has ever had.
Also, I do miss having Hala on my screen.

That clip from World News is the CNNI that people trusted and could count on. Half an hour, several different global stories. Even the headlines gave us more in a couple of minutes back then than we get in four hours now. Such a pity! I miss CNNI.
"Half an hour, several different global stories"
Reminds me of what you get on Al Jazeera English today!
