On his weekly radio show, Councillor Doug Ford was without his co-host and brother, Mayor Rob Ford, but that didn’t stop him from lashing out at the Toronto Star.

Ford said Sunday, The Star is out to “politically kill” the mayor and accuses one of the two star reporters, Robyn Doolittle, who claims she saw the alleged Rob Ford crack video, of “stalking” people in Florida who know the Ford family.

Doug Ford vented for almost 10 minutes on the subject, going as far as to say Doolittle needs “serious counselling.”
