Was no one watching WBR. Not like TV Forum to sleep through a relaunch!

I didnt see any changes but I didnt see anything apart from a story.. and as much as I dislike Manisha, I think she done a fantastic job presenting the news yesterday afternoon... the is definatly what she should be doing... not the business but news!

I will give some caps if no one is watching the TV.

Not very high-paced headline-recap, though I like the fact that they start with the headlines rather than with a "This is World News Today, I'm...".
Don't like the standing presenter although it looks like he's already seated.
The studio is not exactly appealing... but we'll see...

very disappointing. The headline recap bed started over and over again for each headline. and pre-rendered titles like THE WORLD TODAY.

Set-wise, its in the WBR set, exactly the same but with a different projection in the background.

Well, at least Manisha looks lovelier than ever, even if she's standing.

I see what they are trying to do... the studio is just to small for it.

Not only do I have to agree with the comments above, I also think the set looks rather dark, especially keeping in mind the target audience: the United States, where it is 7 a.m. Right: George is well lit but that doesn't make the programme any more pleasant to watch. And sorry, but I don't like the background.
