Dissing the Conservancy

Buried at the end of today's Downtown News story on the Ambassador Hotel controversy, school board member David Tokofsky flings a stinging barb at the Los Angeles Conservancy. They are on the same side—both want to preserve more of the relic hotel than the school district approved last week—but Tokofsky says the Conservancy is "too weak-kneed" to carry out its threat to sue.

"They came off as a bunch of white liberals trying to collect trinkets," said Tokofsky. "I think they will be politically correct and duck and cover."
