...your answer is as good as mine. I have been anxiously awaiting the end result of my santa baby piece. After a few days of not seeing it on the news, I called to follow up. What I found was that the piece apparently needed more to be complete and make the news. I thought it was weird that at the end of filming there was no instructor or participant interview. I thought perhaps becuase the focus was less on fitness and more on Christmas fun, that perhaps interviews weren't needed. I feel very disappointed at myself right now. I should have asked more questions and clarified with the assignment editor, so something like this wouldn't have happened.
I also had no reply from the reporter from the Waterloo Wellington record that I pitched this story to. We had touched base but as soon as I mentioned that CTV was also involved, she stopped returning my emails. I did try to assure her that I would try to make it work so no one was scooped and every form of media had a side of the story to tell. Now I try and pull off miracles in a few days to try and salvage what's left of the story and try to get excited about the new opportunities it will bring!
