Former Smitherman aide warns that the Toronto Star is growing Rob Ford's support by bullying him

TORONTO – A former political aide to mayoral candidate George Smitherman said Thursday that support is growing for Rob Ford amid allegations the mayor appears in a video smoking what appears to be crack cocaine.

Bruce Davis suggested the media is creating public sympathy for Ford by hounding him for answers.

“When I talk to people out there, they have a lot of sympathy for the mayor,” Davis said. “They don’t have a lot of sympathy for people interrupting a press conference, or challenging him in the Tim Hortons drive-thru. That doesn’t go with Canadians.
Gee, this is all sounding strangely familiar...

hmm..rudely, repeatedly interrupting a press conference like The Toronto Star's Royson James did here, perhaps?
