While I agree that the onus is on Gawker and/or the Star to produce some proof, thinking that Ford's camp may have bought the tape is hardly a conspiracy theory. If there really is a tape, it's a very possible scenario, and even a few of the first reports SAID that Ford's camp was contacted with the option of buying it.
But yeah, this is pretty shoddy journalism, if you can even call it that. But that seems to be what passes nowadays. Don't like Ford, and even that still from the 'tape' looks pretty sketchy, but if this story falls apart people should pay at the Star and Gawker. Maybe even a libel suit or something.
It is kinda funny how personally CC is taking it though.
