Just thought with all the poll's of Best Presenter etc, that I would start a topic on what, in your opinion is the best current news graphics.

Edit: I did put Other in the poll but it hasn't came up, but if you have any others do mention them.

I've voted for CNN. I think their graphics are very stylish whilst still doing the job they are required to do. Their 'flipper' is not as distracting as a ticker but it still gives all the information the viewer needs. I also like the black and white colour scheme - it keeps everything simple and not distracting.

I have voted for CNN as well. Very simple graphics, executed superbly.

BBC, Because the graphics look inviting and refreshing. And on Breakfast they do and i love Spotlights light house theme!

CNN for me....simple, but oh so stylish, and not destracting from the pictures. However, the BBC News ones do come a very close second....again very simple, but stylish too, not over designed

I've voted CNN, for all the reasons given above.

I like the BBC ones, but the red and black straps are a little plain.

Really don't like the CNN graphics, the way they hang in the middle of the screen makes things looks very confused and cluttered.

The beebs are good at the moment, as are AJE's

I have voted for BBC News 24, as they are very nice and simple. They are a vast improvement from the last set of graphics etc. I agree with CNN their graphics are very easy to read and simple to follow.

ITV News, graphics however do look a bit of a mess I need to say, and also very cluttered.
