Rob Ford's Toronto

[Electrify]

Not secret sources. I'm acquainted with several members of the media. It's open information, just not mainstream because nobody is reporting it. I and others are making it mainstream, I and others are reporting our open conversations with members of the media.

I almost dated a girl who works at 680 News, met her on POF. Never went anywhere, and being the little (insert degrading term here) she was, she had no interest even remaining friends. Her loss, cause if I pointed her in the direction of this thread it could single handedly propel her from weekend sportscaster to a lead position.

Just felt like sharing that tidbit with you all. Carry on.

I just lost my source.

EDIT: No he's not dead. No he didn't get caught. He just lost his stream of information because of the recent resignations.

aw

but you still have the media sources right!

No, they lost their source.

Rob Ford is going to speak in a bit. He's going to call for an early election.

It's his only hope. The last thing he wants is the media and voters digging up more dirt for the next 16 months. And it puts likely challengers like Chow in a disadvantageous position as they have to start their campaign from scratch.

Ford is nervous. And obviously in distress. Almost looks like he's about to burst out in tears. Never seen him like this before. Part of me feels sorry for the man (I know I shouldn't)

Only $3200 left at Crackstarter.

Didn't play out as we expected. He must have changed his decision after the resignations.

I was about to say the same thing. I can't stand the guy, but I can't help it, given how protracted this whole thing is. That being said, every time I hear him open his mouth, that sympathy immediately dissipates.

 

[MetroMan]

Ford's excuse for the resignations is that "they found better opportunities. LFMAO!

 

[AlvinofDiaspar]

Or maybe his source is one of the resigned?

MetroMan:

Don't laugh, anything else is a better opportunity after the last 2 weeks. You've got to hand it to him though, losing BOTH on the same day. Told him not to cut the gravy too much.

It was great while it lasted - but when everyone quits, its hard to keep your sources

Thanks for giving us the inside scoop for months MetroMan!

Can someone provide the jist of what Rob just said? My audio didn't work at all.

Yeah, I thought for sure he was about to resign! He sure looked nervous/stressed/etc. Can't be long now... the Crackstarter is going to hit its mark, and there's going to be all kinds of new pressure. If the Star has 3 different sources for the video, I hope they actually race each other to the bottom and Gawker can actually pay a fraction of the price and give the rest to charity.

Ford has apparently apologized for calling the media maggots. That makes everything all right.
