HARRISBURG – A brief exchange of comments videotaped during an effort to reach out to Latino leaders last week in Philadelphia has created a new wave of controversy for Gov. Corbett.

In an hour-long interview Friday during a roundtable sponsored by Al Día News Media, a moderator – *Al Dia Editor and NewsTaco partner  Sabrina Vouroulais – asked Corbett whether he had any Latinos on his staff.

Corbett said he did not, adding quickly, “If you can find us one, please let me know.”

He went on to ask, with a smile, whether anyone in the audience wanted to come to Harrisburg. That prompted laughter. “See?” he said to the moderator.
