Sun News Network just gave Rob and Doug Ford their own television show

When the media closes a door, sometimes it opens a window. NewsTalk 1010 ended the Rob and Doug Ford’s weekly radio show last week, sensibly realizing that the risks of giving the increasingly unpredictable brothers unfettered access to the airwaves outweighed the rewards. Apparently, the Sun News Network has no such qualms—despite the mayor’s recent history of shudder-inducing soundbites. Kory Teneycke, a vice president at the station, today announced that the Fords have agreed to host a show called Ford Nation, which starts airing this Monday at 8 p.m. Details about the program remain scarce, but it’s expected to include in-studio chatter from the brothers, along with in-the-field segments and guest personalities like the network’s polarizing bigmouth David Menzies. Doesn’t exactly sound scintillating, but the show should, if nothing else, give the late-night comedians a regular supply of joke fodder. [Sun News]
Should Howard Stern be worried?
WHAT!?…oh yeah…it’s a subsidiary of Rupert Murdoch’s who has FOX…what will their first program be about? Crack? drunk driving? how to to kill somebody in 15 minutes? “escorts”? or maybe eating pu$$y?
Maybe Doug will bring his daughters on the show. You can tell him leave mom and sister Kathy behind
Let’s hope they don’t bash Santa Claws
Just heard the first show is at Rob’s house, the title is Guess who is coming to dinner. After the first show it will be moved to a later time slot
The second show will be from Doug’s winter home in Florida. Titled spend an afternoon around the pool with Doug’s wife and daughters. Again we can leave Doug’s mom and sister Kathy behind. Rob can make rude comments to his nieces
The more the Fords open their mouths, the more they shoot themselves in the foot. I say they should have a daily show!
Apparently the first show on Monday is pre-taped, according to Cory Teneyke, as heard on the “As it happens” just now. Possibly covering their basis with regards to Rob Ford saying something really really stupid?
nope….I already heard it is about murder for hire.
This really does not belong in commentary about this issue. However, why was Kathy left out of the “weigh in” program?
Another speculative ‘reason’ as to the end of the radio show. I thought it was because they didn’t take Robyn Dolittle’s call into the show.
Boring drivel- much like his record. Meaninglessness.
Wake up ford brothers, what you are doing to fight for your 1% business owners….is going to be the devils karma, you are shoving your selves down the 99%ers.throat..you both are getting more and more repulsive, the sun has just handed a desperat man, a gun!! do you two idiots realy think it will be nice when DECO is bank rupt……i shop where i like and respect the owners….if not for your stuborn selves, do it for your familys. if and when you go bank rupt, you can always work in the front line unions of the meat plant, your father new what was best for DECO, then and now..good bye,
Funny you say that…..if as a slease laugh act, they could become super stars,but they would and must quit the public sevise.
I CANCELED MY PAPER, I WILL NEVER SPEND MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS PAPER EVER AGAIN, IF KORY STILL HAS A JOB AFTER THIS, HE HAS CREATED A HUGE SPLIT IN THE MORAL OF THIS GREAT CITY, IF FORD NATION WINS, WILL HE ON BEHALF OF THE CITY COMFORT THE MOTHERS SON OR DAUGHTER KILLED BY GANGS, OR DRUNK DRIVERS…AND ALL THE OTHER GARBAGE.EVERY GOOD PERSON SHOULD CANCEL THERE SUBSCRIPTIONS IN PROTEST OF THIS IMMORAL INVATION OF OUR NATION.

I think you are right, I would think the Deco business would suffer, Who wants to do business with people like this
