Douglas B. Ford Park is of course where police saw Rob Ford and Sandro Lisi hanging out. They recovered a vodka and juice bottle afterward.

(correction: event is on Sunday)

I had my doubts on Doolittle ability to analyse a political situation after reading the concluding chapter of her book. This reporting of Kouvalis polling info just lowers that opinion a bit further. Passing this unverifiable PR off as investigative journalism does her and the G&M reputation little good.

When the Globe ownership was willing to kneecap their editorial board in order to endorse the un-electable Tim Hudak, it became crystal clear that when it comes to promoting elite-friendly politicians, risking the paper's reputation isn't a concern that registers.

IMO, I don't see a whole lot of analysis in that piece. It looks more like basic reporting to me. She asked for a reaction to the latest Forum findings, and this is what Tory's people told her.

ETA: FYI. I'm not debating whether RD is an astute analyst, just commenting on my reaction to the story itself.

Someone needs to go to the event and hand out free vodka shots. Or update the sign appropriately. Or put a flaming bag of shit on Momma Ford's welcome mat. Whatever works.
