13ABC now branding as 13 Action News

Post by radioandtventhusiast » Wed Jun 07, 2023 1:43 pm

Just noticed that WTVG's newscasts are now back to the old 13 Action News branding, omitting ABC. They also no longer have the ABC logo in their branding, with just the Circle 7 style 13 in their logo. I don't think any big changes are coming, but it piqued my interest.

"Action News"

Branding like that sounded really cool...in 1975.

I picture an old Dodge van, with bright TV logos, a chain smoking driver, a cameraman, and a reporter rushing to the scene of the latest big story. :lol

Damn. When MW tells you to stop, you know you've gone too far.

This is the same guy that let LL and all its aliases run around this board for months 😆

Mega Hertz, can you get WTVG 13 digital in Brighton off air? You probably could have received the analog there, at least when they went nondirectional analog right before they went digital on 13.

I don't have an antenna hooked up at the moment, but I doubt I could. It used to sneak in when it was still analog, but I bet it wouldn't be easy now. When it is hooked up, I pull better from Lansing than Detroit in some cases.
