• Homebuilder Confidence Plunges As High Interest Rates and Economic Fears Take a Toll (realtor.com) — Worthington residents may be interested to know that national homebuilder sentiment has dropped to its lowest point in eight months, according to an index overseen by a Worthington-based NAHB chairman. High interest rates, energy costs tied to Middle East tensions, and weaker buyer confidence are making builders more pessimistic heading into the key spring housing season. 
• Columbus restaurant cancels event for Ohio governor candidate, alleging ‘pro-Nazi remarks' (614now.com) — A planned campaign stop for Ohio gubernatorial candidate Casey Putsch at La Chatelaine French Bakery & Bistro in Worthington this Friday has been called off by the restaurant. The owners cited concerns about past comments they believe Putsch made regarding Nazis and the Holocaust, while Putsch disputes the characterization and has moved his rally to a different, undisclosed location.
