What a poorly organized trainwreck!!!

For visual aesthetics, I give it an "F." Terribly cluttered. Weird tiles scattered all over the page that are out of columnar alignment.

Do the web sites for all TV news stations owned by Meredith look this horrible?

I totally agree. But it begs the question, why bother looking at it? It's been horrible for years now, and I expect nothing else for it to get worse.

Actually, yes. They do.

I just checked out the sites for a few other Meredith Stations, and they're all visually identical except for the logo on the top navigation bar.

At the bottom, they say "Powered by BLOX Content Management System from TownNews.com," so they're all running on the same platform.

I'm guessing that Meredith's web team (or whoever else was responsible for doing all the stations' websites) didn't want to spend much effort into fully tweaking the colors and design to better match each station's branding.
