Sorry, but the employee responsible for doing this was just let go.

I finally got through to CHCH TV in Hamilton only to find that they did not do the video of our Christmas Lights that they broadcasted. They out sourced it to News Video Services of Hamilton, When I contacted them they wanted over 65 dollars PLUS tax to get a copy of the vid. I think that is a bit to expensive for a 30 second spot. I am sure that they sold the vid to CHCH TV and now they want MORE Money from me. OK I can see that they are a 3rd party and where told by CHCH to go video our place, I can also see if they want a couple of bucks to copy to a DVD or VHS BUT NOT $65.00. I hope I am not out of line or to cheap.

Thanks for the Rant

Outsourced their local video coverage, another great example of great local media.

I'd pass on giving them the $65 plus, you have lots of self made video. Or I'd ask them for money using your house as a subject. $65, plus would be suitable fee.
