Fox News Redesign

Fox News

A couple of months ago, I wrote about how I would redesign Fox News. Yesterday, they rolled out a new design, and I really think it looks great.

The first thing I notice is the use of much better colors- they are more neutral and not harsh on the eyes. Also, the navigation bar conforms with itself and the site, and they placed all the shows in an “On Air” drop down button, which I did in my design. The most important part is everything now looks like it belongs- In my last post on this matter I mentioned that everything looked like it was just thrown on the page. That is no longer the case.

The stock information is something CNN and MSNBC have front and center for the users to easily find, and I’m glad Fox News followed suit. Finally, a lot of their boxes with several types of information have moved to a tabbed interface, which is a nice touch.

All-in-all, it’s still a lot of  information, but it’s definitely up to par with the other major news networks now. I’m glad the design will no longer be a deterrent for me visiting their site.
