Earlier this month , Ford admitted that he smoked crack cocaine in a "drunken stupor" a year ago Since then , the mayor has been making headlines with more surprising comments to the media .
His latest interview with Weir was no exception . When asked why he had decided to come out with the truth now , Ford swore , saying , "I'm not gonna run around and be phony and lie ... I was tired of all these allegations and bullsh*t . Excuse my words . Sorry , I shouldn't swear in front of the kids ."
He also argued that he never lied to the media when asked if he smoked cack cocaine , because he no longer smokes and is not addicted. When Meir accused him of playing with "semantics," Ford got angry .
"Typical media ," he blasted . "You guys are all the same , you're all cut from the same cloth . You can spin it any way you want."
Ford's brother Doug tried to calm Ford down . Later when Weir asked Ford if he has considered visiting an addiction specialist , Ford exclaimed , "I'm not an addict ! You guys can spin it , you can tell me whatever you want."
There is no love lost between Ford and the media : earlier this month , he said that he never lied to the press and that reporters never asked him the "correct questions." Earlier this year , he also blasted the media as a bunch of maggots" after the drug allegations surfaced .
