Actually it all met the editorial standards of multiple very well respected news outlets including CTV, the Star, and the Globe and Mail. It is not rumour and speculation.

It is a fact that reporters saw a video of Rob Ford smoking something from a glass pipe. It is a fact that he was photographed at a crack house with crack dealers.

It is a fact that CTV knew of the existence of the video from police reports even before that.

It is a fact that Ford knew there was a video and the address at which it could be found (a crack house).

It is a fact that residents say he was at a crack house frequently.

It is a fact that members of his immediate family have histories of trafficking cocaine and other drugs, and of being addicted to it, and a fact that many of his associates are connected to the drug trade.

It is a fact that his friends have told him to check in to rehab.

The only FACT is that you keep saying they are "facts". Doesn't make it so.

By the way I was out of town this weekend and once again had to endure Toronto being ridiculed by my hosts due to our mayor being a crack head. He is a liability to this city and its reputation.
What, did you let it slip that you voted for him? :rofl:

I don't know who you hang out with but I've never been ridiculed by anyone for having Rob Ford as Mayor. You may need to rethink the company you keep.

My word has nothing to do with it and neither does yours. What makes these facts is that they have been checked and vetted for publication by the editors of well respected newspapers.

Your kooky bluster is that CTV, The Star, Gawker, and the Globe & Mail are all making up stories in some grand conspiracy all to hurt Rob Ford.

No I did not once say they are making up stories. I'm saying that seeing some grainy iphone video clip of some fat blonde guy and CTV citing unnamed "police sources" breaching their sworn oaths as peace officers to disclose details of an ONGOING police investigation is not reliable evidence of Rob Ford smoking crack.

The Star's conclusions are evidence of biased reporters seeing what they want to see and that an unethical "police source" proving his word (oath) is worthless.

Repeating the same old shit does not make it fact.

They clearly stated that they could identify the individual as Rob Ford and they documented their reasons for thinking so in clear terms. Add on to that the following facts:

-- Ford knew where the video would be, he gave the exact address
-- Ford was photographed with the video makers in front of the location it was filmed
-- Locals say Ford was frequently at that address

Sure if we ONLY had the video you could raise these doubts, but we have SO MUCH corroborating evidence that you sound shrill and hollow. If the video was faked, it wasn't faked by some complete outsiders who knew nothing about Ford -- it was faked by crack dealers who he frequently spends time with, and at an address he frequently visits.

Maybe Ford has some story that explains all the above, but "there is no video" isn't that story. He actually knew where the video would be found, so we already know he lied about that--and we all know that once you have identified someone as a liar, everything else they have said on the subject is equally dubious.

Shrill and hollow?

You are usually so much better in your arguments than resorting to that ^ and "kooky".

I am quite comfortable knowing that my views are based on facts, facts reported in most of our major newspapers.

You will have to content yourself with being a loon who thinks there's a giant conspiracy spanning multiple media organizations. Enjoy.

Again, no matter how many times you repeat something it doesn't make it true. I don't think there is a conspiracy. I just don't believe it is as cut and dried as you say it is. I don't have the level of trust you do in the media. I think they get it wrong.... a lot.

In News of Real Importance: To fuji goes the dubious honour of posting number 3000.
And being the last poster on page 100 of my browser's version of the thread.


And to Schlong, the honour of starting our revels anew with post #3001, atop page 101​

3000 is only bronze. Silver will go to 5000 and 10k will take the gold medal home.

i think the only thing that is worth anything that has come out of this thread is that fuji is now forced to believe in bigfoot, nessie, aliens and ghosts.

Keep trolling. You are a horse's ass.

You lied, and now you are trying to cover up your lie with trolling.

reputable reporters saw a video and wrote a story, that is all you need for things to be real. your reporters didn't see ford smoking crack, they saw a (supposed) video. so you are now forced to believe in bigfoot and all other things i mentioned. horse's ass.
