Now that AMNW has been relocated to another studio, the main studio at KATU is now ready to be gutted to the walls to make room for the news set which will be HUGE. The new set will take up the entire studio and will feature a main anchor area, a weather center, several reporter presentation areas, as well as an interview set. There will also be a few surprises beyond the usual array of plasma screens and Duratrans. Demolition has already begun, and construction will start soon with a debut sometime before the May book. Until then, look for some pretty crazy camera positions as they add yet another 1/2 hour to their afternoon block of news.
