Long-form was preempted for the third day in a row today. It also appears that all shows are now using the small LDL/L3rds, even though they used the large local LDL all throughout regular DP today, until they realized their mistake (you couldn't read any L3rds) at 1:30 PM ET and cued the (correct) small one.

The old TWC HD logo prior to the LDA has returned!

I noticed that too....I like it a lot better than the usual one...of course when they realize they made something look good (TWC HD logo with no LDA, they change it when they come back with LDA and normal logo <_<

Last time I checked, none of you were perfect.  :rolleyes: People do make mistakes and press the wrong buttons.

Neither did I. I'm just sick of them making changes in the middle of  a production. Pick with something and stick with it. If the LDA is off, keep it off. If the TWC HD logo is on, keep it on. The average viewer doesn't give a rats you-know-what, it's not like some deathly error, they probably won't even notice!

So if the average viewer doesn't give a rats you-know-what, then it doesn't really matter that they brought the LDA in (or whatever they did you guys are not enjoying), right? :thumbsup:  It's live TV, things go wrong. If the LDA was supposed to be there and was not there, they are going to try to do what they can to get it up.  Just saying..

Some of these functions are automatic and have to be overridden. When you are covering severe weather its hard to do it all at once. Try making graphics, coordinating breaks, scheduling interviews, and so much more all at the same time.

They all have, but the other shows are not really using it yet. Weather Center and YWT seem to be the only ones really utilizing it.
