Toronto Mayor Rob Ford lashed out at the media Sunday, saying he half-expects to wake up to reporters spying on him.
During the season premiere of his weekly radio show on Newstalk 1010,
Ford and his brother, Councillor Doug Ford, complained they’ve been the
target of reporters with an axe to grind.
“I rolled onto the bed on one side and thought the media would be
underneath the bed, or looking in our windows,” the mayor said.
“They’re literally camped out three hours outside (football) practice
and the kids are like, this is ridiculous. Anything good about Rob
Ford, they’re not going to write about that.”
The Fords hammered newspaper coverage of the recent controversy
surrounding accusations the mayor used city resources to run his charity
football team and allegations he broke city hall’s conflict of interest
rules.
“When you don’t have any credibility in some of the stories, ... they
sit on their asses instead of looking into the story,” Councillor Ford
said.
“They won’t stop. They don’t believe in democracy. They won’t stop
because they don’t think you should have been elected. You’re saving
hundreds of millions of dollars.”
