Talk:WAND (TV)

Standard logos from prior owner LIN?
Per former content at the article for LIN TV-owned WDTN in Dayton, OH, and a question at "Talk:WDTN":

WAND was previously owned by LIN TV. Its logo is very similar to the ones used by LIN's WDTN, and by WPRI-TV and WNAC-TV in Providence, RI.

My operating theory is, as former logos are retired, LIN either does or did employ common station branding. Can this theory be proved or disproved? If it was LIN policy, was it only applied to certain stations?

KMID, in Midland/Odessa, TX, has no apparent connection to the current and former LIN stations. Is its similar logo just a coincidence or is it an example of reusing a public domain logo?

If anyone has any insight on this and/or sources proving or disproving, please let me know here. Thanks. --Chaswmsday (talk) 14:20, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
