Buffalo, NY – When Carl Paladino and New York Post reporter Fred Dicker got into a shouting match last week, some former television reporters remember another feisty political leader, former Buffalo Mayor Jim Griffin.

Griffin had shouting and shoving matches, and like Paladino was never afraid to speak his mind. WBFO'S Eileen Buckley talked with those reporters about this no holds barred campaign of Paladino and similarities to the Griffin years.
