New LDL

[WeatherWitness]

*Bump*

I know this has been discussed before, but is anyone getting a clock on the SD LDLs? I think a clock may be provided for viewers with a STAR, but there is NO clock whatsoever on the national LDLs. (And I know no clocks are present on HD LDLs, either. )

Yeah, it has been like that since 4/14. I would expect they'll add a clock for satellite/legacy STAR viewers eventually.

Yeah, I wish they would. I see no reason why a clock is on the STAR LDL and not the national. And, to me, the clock is helpful...especially if TWC is on TV in public places without a nearby clock.

Just one of the many reasons I hate the new LDL system. They got rid of a system that worked for one that does not.

It's a lot easier with the new system though for the sponsor tags. All it requires is changing a graphic, as opposed to sending updates to all the STARs everyday.

Just because it doesn't have a clock on the national ldl and you don't like it doesn't mean its a system that doesn't work. If there is intent to add a clock (and it was clear they didn't intend to add it originally) the national ldl is usually the last thing on the list. Its not that big of a priority either

I knew you were going to argue that. Can't we just for once ignore posts we disagree with? I have my reasons for saying what I do, and there's no need to argue everything I say, especially if it is several posts above.

[Mike M]

TWC's public relations have researched that a clock isn't well-requested.

You have your reasons? I am not arguing but stating what I believe. Get over it

Exactly. Its an accessory not a necessity

Then you probably knew I was going to chime in too.

As Mike said, TWC, as do all media outlets, researches extensively before implementing changes on-air. There clearly isn't a want for a clock or I can assure you it would be there. The clock wasn't on domestic IntelliStar's new LDL until it was extensively requested.

[Mike M]

Curious does TWC still use Nielson ratings?

[Tyler]

Yes they do.

I don't see the big deal of a clock on the LDL anyways. I always wear a watch when I'm in public and there are like 5 clocks in my TV room. With the National LDL having a clock, local STARs would get two clocks and that would be confusing. You can't put the clock atop because the "up next" cities go there.

Oh, I wasn't complaining about the clock. I have the Intellistar, so I couldn't care less about the satellite LDL. I have half a dozen clocks in my room anyways.

Don't forget that watch on your left wrist too.

Off topic, but how did you know that?

The array of hidden cameras in your room. Good luck finding them all
