A veteran of the cable news channel for nearly two decades, Griffin was known for his challenging investigations, and tough interviews.
His investigations included deep dives into safety issues in Ford vehicles, sexual assault claims against Uber drivers, fraud claims against Trump University, illegal drift net fishing in Singapore. He reported from New York in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and on how gerrymandering and super PACs have changed how elections function in the U.S.
“His work ethic was unparalleled,” Licht added. “He spent long hours poring over documents and working the phones. Even as he battled cancer, he refused to give up on the reporting that was so important to him and was even working on an investigation until the day he passed away.” Griffin joined CNN as a correspondent in 2004, based in Atlanta, and quickly established himself as a staple across CNN’s dayparts, with his incisive reporting and investigations on everything from politics to business to sports.
Along the way he won multiple Emmy Awards, a Peabody Award, an Edward R. Murrow award and other honors.
