Logos Are an Eye Sore

Am I the only one annoyed and angered by the growing practice of superimposing station logos over the programming? I recall the maneuver being started by NBC sports. Now the tactic has run amok and is out of control. The worst offenders seem to be USA, The Family Channel, CNBC, VH-1, MTV and CNN. The list is growing rapidly, with ABC’s “Good Morning America” suddenly sticking “GMA” in its programming. Since the logo remains stationary, I find my eyes constantly looking at it as though there was dirt on my television screen. It becomes such a distraction so as to degrade the pleasure one gains from watching that particular program.
