TV Station KOLD teamed with the Town Of Oro Valley and Mayor Hiremath to create a 2 minute video extolling the virtues of life in Oro Valley. Front and center is a discussion of the Oro Valley Community center and all its amenities. The video is posted on the town's web site.
The piece is part of of KOLD's "Business File" series. It is hosted by Joan Lee of KOLD.
The interview is not an independent news report. It appears to be an advertising piece. According to the town, Oro Valley has a contract with Raycom Broadcasting (Tucson News Now-TV Channel 7), for regional online/digital advertising.
