The other area stations may want to get their acts together.

TvBoy: Damn,

I noticed the top of the hour IDs in HD but not the other stuff. Are you sure they're shooting HD? I imagine they could shoot standups with SD cameras and put them into an HD graphics background. I would love to see them ease into HD production and news. Hopefully that was part of their larger investment when they redid their control room.

I saw a promo for a go kart in HD.. and one with Tammy Elliott sitting in the studio. It really jumped out at you and looked great. I HOPE their news goes HD.
