Please include your full name, daytime phone number and address (for verification of authorship, not publication). The following is in response to 'LETTER: Reader urges Bell Media to rethink CTV Barrie changes,' published Feb. 11.

I agree with Cathie Jacobs 100 per cent. We don't want to lose our CTV Barrie.

A large area depends on the news on weekends. We feel like the staff are part of the family.

I think it's about time the big wigs take a significant salary cut and give the hard-working employees, that actually make CTV Barrie the success that it is, a promise of a secure job for years to come.

These big CEOs that so-called work for their company need a more appropriate salary.

Same with the big grocery suppliers.

Who decides and approves that they need million-dollar salaries?

I sure hope Bell re-thinks its decision.
