For anyone curious as to how I figured that WDCW, then WBDC started using this logo in 2001, it took a little bit of internet forensics. I found the musical packaged commissioned by the network which was introduced in tandem with the logo. It is called The Jim and Howard News Music Package, which can be heard at 615 Music. Doing a search for wbdc "615 music" on Google, the earliest mention of the WBDC in conjunction with 615 Music was on a newsletter from the RTNDA called Trade Secrets, dated March 2002. The mention is a summary of 615's activity which included creating "'Jim and Howard' for WBDC." Also in the Google results is the this archived post to DCRTV from September 2001 noting that WBDC had very recently introduced a new logo. Thus I figure WBDC had introduced the above logo for the introduction of the 2001-2002 television season. SterlingNorth 10:25, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Logo Change
It appears WDCW is now using their new logo, but only on-air. The website, as well as some old promos, are still using the old "Washington's WB" logo.
