Dear Editor,

Regarding the lawsuit by NY1 anchors Jeanine Ramirez, Vivian Lee, Kristen Shaughnessy, Amanda Fairnacci and Roma Torre alleging age and gender discrimination, I watch NY1 and find these ladies present the news in an informative manner.

I am 70 years old this year and have worked for a plumbing supply in Mineola for 40 years. I came down with cancer five years ago, and after I was cleared I was welcomed back.

Now that is a company with compassion and didn't consider my age but my experience in getting the job done. Too bad some companies lack concern for loyal employees who do a good job.

Sincerely Yours

Frederick R. Bedell, Jr.
