Ban all watermarks: they’re visually irritating and senseless boasting tools used by the networks.
It’s even worse now that they’re still catering for the 4:3 crowd, and the watermark appears nearly in the middle of the 16:10/16:9 screen.
Agree Zut: if nine don’t like seven stealing their footage, they should take them to court, not make our eyes bleed from all of the watermarks.
This truly is a new low water mark in commercial TV broadcasting!
That’s *bad* Jimmy! :^)
