Thanks for sharing. Amazing how much can change in 12 years. So much of this video is what I miss about CNN. The light newsroom graphics, the visual interest behind the anchors, the true rolling news handoffs, Studio 7, and most controversially the lower thirds with the show bug, flipper, and disappearing live bug. I could watch this version of CNN all day.
Worth noting that 5 anchors were used from 7am-4pm in 2012. Today's schedule uses 8 for the same duration.
I know there's no use living in the past, but if CNN wanted to capture some of the energy from this today, they should roll out an updated version of this Newsroom package, bring back some of the looped video/control room style backgrounds and bring the desk away from the wall. I can't tell you how much better this looks because of the space between the anchor and the set piece behind them. With 10am-7pm from DC, CNN could easily make Studio A/B feel like Studio 7 and bring back in-studio handoffs.

I hope the relocated sign is publicly accessible. It's is such an important piece of Atlanta.
