OT: The News Thread

Emmett Macfarlane @EmmMacfarlane
Doug Holyday won't answer a hypothetical about whether he'd be fine with a crack-smoking mayor. Which is kinda incredible, actually.
 
JordanHeath-Rawlings @TheGameSheet
If Rob Ford's face isn't on a T-Shirt directly above the words "Everything's Fine" by 6 p.m. today, then I'm not a maggot.
 
CP24 @CP24
Rob Ford speaks to media outside his office, apologizes for calling media "maggots." "It's been bothering me a lot," he said.

CP24 @CP24
Ford says he was informed that his staffers quit this afternoon. Names Amin Massoudi, Doug's exec. assistant, into his office.

CP24 @CP24
Ford: "I've obviously told everyone that ever worked for me if an opportunity comes up, go. I have a young staff. Great experience for them"

Andrew Coyne @acoyne
Ford won’t comment on personnel matters, but suggests his Press Sec and deputy quit because they got better job offers.

Daniel Dale @ddale8
Rob Ford, related to the homicide detectives' interview with his staffer: "I have no idea what the police are investigating."

Metro Morning @metromorning
Mayor Rob Ford: "Everything's fine."

Daniel Dale @ddale8
Rob Ford thanks the two aides who resigned. Says it's "business as usual."

Daniel Dale @ddale8
Ford suggested that the aides received great offers somewhere else; he won't hold people back, he says. We're told they quit on principle.

CBC Toronto @CBCToronto
Ford wanted to apologize "to each and every one of you about the derogatory comment I made on my radio show with respect to the media."

CBC Toronto @CBCToronto
"I'm sure you understand this has been a very stressful week for myself and my family," Ford said.

How many times has Mr Ford used that line since he's been elected?

It WAS fabricarted. Ten years ago.

Let's talk about a law student who claims Ford MURDERED someone on a message board. Currently. On THIS message board.

ya why don't we focus on something else to deflect attention from the soldier pissing himself picture
 
all the "dozens" of amateur turkish military websites 10 years ago were abuzz with this cleverly turkish-captioned photo.

our proof of this is that HA typed the turkish words for "Hood Event".

which, surprisingly, were available to be found within the first 6 words of this wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hood_event

"The Hood event (Turkish: Çuval Olayı) was an incident on...."

Accusing someone of murder today versus a ten your old bad joke.

I wonder, what would happen to your law career if your real name was linked to what you wrote?

Did you really think when you wrote that?
 
exactly the same thing that is happening to all the people saying this on twitter.

absolutely nothing.

especially now that, y'know, cops are investigating a link between the mayor's office and a murder, possibly in connection to the video.

So let me get this straight...

The guy was murdered in March, so Ford allegedly had him pre-emptively murdered so he couldn't sell the video?

What?

Were any wayward ditchpigs harmed?
