Do we know if Sky News will have to use the new corporate Sky logo in the new year?

Sky Sports appear to be switching over to it with the launch of Sky Sports 4.


What does it look like?

I think it was the same last night. There must still be work going on.

I was watching last night at about midnight and I noticed a new Breaking News graphic on the ticker - which was quickly replaced with the old one.

Going to be hard to explain, but instead of the black box that says BREAKING NEWS in it, with the bevelled edges, the new graphic was a black box but still had bits of the yellow background of the ticker at the top and bottom, and wasn't bevelled. Looked like yellow text on a black box background.

Hope that makes sense!

Are you sure it was new, as opposed to the current one just breaking or something?

It was different to the normal and that's why I noticed it.

I'm pretty sure I've seen that happen to the ticker a few times. I think it's just a glitch... Wink

It wasn't a glitch it was definitely a new graphic...

yeah that has happened many times before, I think it is more probable that it is just a glitch.

How can a 'glitch' mean a completely different graphic is played out?
