In other news, the CMA will provide up-to-the-minute rehearsal footage and interviews of the CMA AWARDS with two VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS PACKAGE feeds beginning MONDAY (11/9) from 10-10:30a (ET) and running TUESDAY (11/10) from 10-10:30a (ET). Each feed package will be approximately 15 minutes and will be re-run, back-to-back, so that media outlets have two opportunities to downlink it.

The trouble number for all satellite feeds is (615) 248-1978 x227 or (917) 929-5564. For more info, contact JIM BOWLING at (213) 215-7822 or jim@blackdiamondmedia.com.
