I shouldn't make light of this until we know he's ok... But I really need the satisfaction of hearing his concession speech on Oct 27th. Anyway, I have to turn away from this tonight - it's like watching someone commit suicide. And yeah, his damn enabling family and friends - good job you're...

I loathe, loathe this man. Yet I do hope that some of his family members are on their way over to City Hall to save him from himself tonight. I know he's going to make me regret feeling this way. I know, I know, I know...

I can't easily see the post # using my mobile view - but I was referring to the post sent by Kensington at 02:09 this morning. The picture of sweaty Rob that was posted in the first link is not recent. Based on the discussion that happened after that link was posted, I think some people here...

Just to point out - that Instagram pic of Rob with the sweat stains posted by Kensington overnight was dated 2012, in case anyone believed that it was current.

According to the original Gawker report, CNN supposedly contacted the Mayor about the video before the news of its existence was made public. Why did the flurry of phone calls happen only after Gawker & the Star broke the news?

I thought it was more interesting that Randy Ford was let into the USA that weekend.

I don't quite understand how being a 'victim' works in the case where the extortion threats begin AFTER the existence of the video became public knowledge. At that point, isn't it retaliation vs trying to get the video back to protect ones reputation? In the words of Chief Blair, "I'm...

When this happened, one of the reporters clarified on twitter that DMW wanted Ford to be able to vote again so that the decision could be unanimous. As it stands (with Rob being the only vote against it) it would become all about him. Which, since it's now made international news, turned out...

I think a lot of people in Toronto have said that over the past year. In all seriousness - wtf?!? it's 'Yes' or 'No'… how can that be so hard of a decision to make - and not once, but twice?

That's what I'm thinking too. Same with the helicopters - big vote in council, mayor missing for the morning, let's put all our newsy resources on this. R Doolittle did post an Instagram of Ford walking through the reporters. From that angle, he seemed to be walking a bit gingerly, which...

I just think that they followed him into work this morning - a la slow speed car chase. Pretty sure it was a news chopper - but I could have been wrong. It was mostly white with what I thought was the ctv logo.

I just saw the (CTV?) helicopter heading towards/hovering over City Hall - lo and behold, Ford has arrived to work.

It's not clear (it's hard to be clear on twitter!) It doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy that Jacobsen would make a point of saying this at all, if the unredacted parts might include something contrary to this statement.

@goldsbie: "There is no specific allegation [in the ITO] that the Mayor was trying to get the video or that Lisi was allegedly acting on [his] behalf." (Quote from Jacobsen)

Great question - but instead of following up on the non-answer from Ford, he tsk tsk's the students for heckling and demanding that Ford answer the question. Edited to add: Great format - but what a jerk of a moderator - and not just for this specific reason.

Do you have a link to this?

The first time I saw that I thought it was hilarious (I still do)... but it's definitely dark too - darker than where 22 minutes usually goes. It reminded me of the last Taiwanese Animators Ford video.

In one of his recent tweets he stated that this source was an established one - as opposed to a lesser vetted new source.
