Arkansas Paper Investigates Griffin

Published by Waldo Jaquith on May 26, 2005 in Education and Politics. 3 Comments

Like local media outlets, who often found Griffin scarce as hen’s teeth when interview came time around, the Arkansas paper wrote that Griffin “could not be reached for comment despite calls to her numbers in three area code zones.” They interviewed both City Councilor Blake Caravati and outgoing school board member Bill Igbani for the story.
