FOX6Now.com Launched

FOX 6 launched a new website today.

I like it.

Did you notice the header?

It's a picture of Milwaukee's skyline, the REAL Milwaukee skyline.




Very nice.

Obviously, FOX 6 didn't use the services of PCC Technology Group.

Remember the $1 million Minneapolis skyline?
A new Web site for campaign finance information in Wisconsin includes the state Capitol in Madison in front of a striking skyline — of Minneapolis.

State Sen. Jeff Plale noticed the geography gaffe after looking at the site created by the Government Accountability Board.

"I'm looking at that thinking, 'What the heck?'" the South Milwaukee Democrat said. "I don't think a lot of Minnesota legislators care about our Government Accountability Board."

The board said it's paying Bloomfield, Conn.-based PCC Technology Group about $1 million to develop the site as part of a new system for tracking campaign fund raising and spending.

Ethics specialist Tommy Winkler said PCC was using the image of the Minneapolis skyline as a placeholder while it searches for a copyright-free image of Madison's skyline.

I like FOX 6's makeover. It's a dramatic improvement from the old site.

I especially like the video options.

Very well done, FOX 6. And nice skyline!
