    I thought the strip across the bottom was called a chyron? Not heard it referred to as a bug before (not saying you’re wrong though).

      Maybe in news it is. 🤷‍♂️ My knowledge comes from working with a 3rd party for ESPN. I know ESPN refers to this as the bug. There are “bug operators”, and boy howdy does the producer yell at them when they’re not on their toes.
