Griffith makes news—29 days later

A month after it occurred (and after many other publications covered the story), The Register-Star finally has reported on an anti-Semitic slur uttered at a public meeting by Taghkanic assessor Art Griffith. Griffith refused to apologize for his use of the term, and even defended it. Meanwhile, word locally is that the Anti-Defamation League has sent a stern letter about the situation to Town Supervisor Betty Young.
