A New Take On KMTV's Old Logo

Post by mrsticka »

If you lived in Omaha in the late 80's and early 90's, you may or may not know what I'm talking about. But for those who don't, KMTV's logo at the time had a unique design. The "3" was placed in between the "KM" and "TV". Therefore, it read as "KM3TV". Their news programs were called NewsCenter 3. Back then, they were the most-viewed station in Omaha. They had both "Jeopardy!" and "Wheel of Fortune" on their channel.

Anyway, I created my own take on their old logo from back then. As crazy as it may seem, if KMTV were to adopt this take on their old logo, which of course they never will, could you imagine what it might do to their ratings? Would they increase or decrease?

NOTE: I shared it on their Facebook page and they liked it.

Why would you even watch Channel 3 when Channel 7 is a thing?

Because KMTV has the most up-to-date newscast out there. I mean who isn't concerned about the Falklands Crisis?

Well, if I want to watch CBS programming, then I'll watch channel 3.

The local CBS news is pretty mediocre but I much prefer CBS This Morning over the Today show

That show is intolerable and not allowed on my TV! I can not stand even 10 seconds of Robin Roberts. She has to go before I would ever watch that show. Sometimes when Robin is on vacation I can stand GMA. George Stephanopoulos is of serpentine nature too.

Liberal bias and pop culture yawn fest. But then all of the morning shows are a similar waste.

Last year when KETV got their new set, I decided to mess around with photoshop and design a new set and logo for KMTV. I based it on CBS O&O graphics and a combo of Philly/San Fran set. I cannot find the original file- but I did find the picture of the screen I took with my phone. Ha.
I really like KMTV- I wish I liked their set, graphic and music. In my opinion, they are far, far better as an organization than their current set, graphics and music.
