As for the lack of outrage at the media, the problem is most people believe it's true, and that the story wasn't made up out of thin air. We haven't seen the video, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Attacking someone based on appearance/or how he carries himself is shallow.

Attacking someone with the sole purpose of circumventing democracy because he doesn't lean your way politically is pretty bush league - This isn't about making Rob Ford look bad (he does a pretty good job himself at that) it's about running him out of office. Better ways to do that - so maybe not shallow. But this entire thing is reaching new heights, and to me an outsider I can't decide who makes Toronto look worse- Rob Ford or his detractors.

I know it's "politics" but this is out of control.
