If Ford is so adamant that The Star is lying about him, he should prove it, PUBLICLY. Otherwise, The Star should fight back hard.

Grew up in Ford’s neighbourhood and I’ve been hearing crazy stories about Rob and his bro Randy for many years (nothing about Doug). Too many overlapping stories from different people for too long for it to be BS. I’m surprised more hasn’t come out.

The “lamestream” moniker applies to newspapers of the right and of the centre. “Lame”, because they will avoid a fight at all costs. They just want to get along. As the difficulties in squeezing a dollar from newspapers increase, the quality of journalistic standards decrease. There is no motivation for classical investigative reportage – and it’s expensive. Re-printing syndicated fluff-pieces is more cost-effective.
And that’s why the Fords get a free pass, and that’s why Mr. Harper’s propaganda goes unchallenged.
When a democratic society has an ineffective political opposition, AND an ineffective media, democracy itself is the victim.

“the Fords get a free pass”
You think Rob Ford is getting a free pass from the Toronto Star?
Really?

As a teacher, I know a lot is kept hidden, but what were the real reasons Rob Ford was fired as a gym teacher by the Toronto Catholic District School Board?

Good question. I mean, the man’s a model of physical fitness.

Didn’t he get elected even after the stories about his drunk driving and pot bust in FL hit the news?
It’s all priced into the model.

Well, I guess the question an enterprising reporter would ask would be: “Have you used illegal substances since that time? No? Really? Would you submit to a blood test to prove it?”
Something like that, just to cite one example.

Warren in the context of a Ford Investigation, if you could have one super power, what would it be?

In no specific context, the power of a drug-sniffing dog. I’ve always liked those dogs.

Ya Man.
I think I would have Psionic Blast-Ability to overload another’s mind causing pain, memory loss, lack of consciousness, vegetative state or death after having created a psionic link into that individual’s mind.
But I think the link to Ford will kill me dead first or I would wake up kind a stoned, with a quarter pounder and a bag of cookies, and with my Band back together.

Also, have you or your brother Randy ever sold drugs or been addicted to anything more hardcore than weed?
Notice: Undefined offset: 180 in /nfs/c05/h06/mnt/72829/domains/warrenkinsella.com/html/wp-content/themes/warroom/functions.php on line 314
Could do — it’s a free country.
Though I think that might tend to backfire on the reporter, not unlike the “Councillor Rob Ford in action” YouTube video.

I notice that in their on line edition of ths story the Star has a hotlink to the original offending article. So Ford has just brought the whole thing up again. I hadn’t heard anything about it the first time, but now I’ know all about it.
Also, doesn’t Ford know that the best way to get people to read something is to tell them that they shouldn’t?

Dear Rob;
How are your sinuses?
Just asking.
Notice: Undefined offset: 180 in /nfs/c05/h06/mnt/72829/domains/warrenkinsella.com/html/wp-content/themes/warroom/functions.php on line 314
Well played!

Has the Star lost the advertising the City places for property announcements? I first noticed the Sun was getting a lot more of these ads than they had in the past, last February. If the City is no longer placing these legal ads in The Star, one might argue the legal requirements are not being fulfilled as the circulation of the Sun is a fraction of that of The Star. What’s up with that?

As a Vancouverite, I’m so glad that Nick Kouvalis’s Campaign Research Inc. utterly failed to make a difference for the right-leaning Non Partisan Association in Vancouver’s civic election. The NPA hired this firm and lost the mayoral race and elected just two councillors, two park commissioners, and three school trustees. The negative attacks against left-leaning Mayor Gregor Robertson and his Vision Vancouver team utterly failed.

So it’s OK for Star reporters to follow Ford’s elderly mother around when she’s visiting friends and then knock on the door and ask for a comment?
Is it also perfectly fine if Star reporters lurk in bushes, wait until the Ford brothers leave for Huntsville, then again come knocking on the cottage door harassing their kids?
Someione once here said that stalking family members shouldn’t be part of the poliutical process.

Nope. And I’ve said that, over and over, and for years. Families are off limits.
But, say, if a reporter wants to ask a question like this: “Sir, have you ever used a prohibited substance since your election?”
That’s fair game.
