For those of us who are graphics or media geeks, it does matter... And from my view, anyway, there are more of those types in Portland than a lot of other places.

The bigger picture, though, seems to show KATU's yearning to be edgy and urgent. The best example of this was their blood-red Crime Alert tag on the lower-third, when the story was just about some good security cam footage of a car prowl that yielded the thief a cell phone. Hardly an alert, but a clear indication that insightful reporting probably isn't at the top of KATU's list.

The sad part is even that won't turn (the few remaining) viewers away...
