I knew about this for a couple days but I didn't want to jump the gun. WCSH/WLBZ which has had the same music since 1986, and has had the same graphics for a long time, is changing there look, they are getting the new graphics that the Gannett (they own 6 & 2) are putting on there stations. They are also dropping the "Good News" Music Package in use since 1986. (WNNE used it for a few years in the 80's). Here are some examples of how it is being used.
Update: News Center (WCSH/WLBZ) has picked this up.

My opinion; is i've seen the look, the music isn't great but catchy after a while. The red graphics are ok but I'm not a huge fan of them.
Update: I have seen stills of it and yes they kept the logo.
