Lemmy Lemmy:
I guess you missed the point of the article: the cops saw the video and were investigating it before the Star broke the story. Ford's being slandered alright, though, just like Lance Armstrong was.
No the artical said this
"CTV News has learned that Toronto Police were investigating the existence of an alleged video involving Mayor Rob Ford, several weeks before the story first appeared in the Toronto Star.
As part of the investigation leading to the raids on Thursday, officers obtained telephone wire-tap evidence.
A highly-placed source confirms to CTV News that on those wiretaps, persons of interest discussed that video in detail, and referred to the mayor's alleged presence in the video."
Nowhere in the artical does it say the police have the tape let alone viewed the tape.
