Guess Who's Gone From Sun TV HomePage?

David "The Menzoid" Menzies show has been "on summer hiatus" the last couple of months.   Now his pic is off their "full schedule page" and his twitter feed just redirects to his Facebook site.  They can't be thinking of putting him in Adler's spot, can they? Or did Kory not have the decency to fire him on his own show?

PS.  When you look at their schedule they've got repeats of "The Source" in part of his time-slot, repeats of "AM Agenda" in the other.  Though that may not be a recent development.

Who's In That Burka?

David Menzies says he convinced a 14 year old kid to dress in a Burka and buy booze at an LCBO.  David Menzies has brought his own son into his stories before.  Here and here.  Mind you, if it is Menzies Jr. this latest story has his age wrong, Menzies' kid being about 10 or 11 (according to the dates on the earlier pieces).  But then, this is Menzies:

Rob Ford Lets David Menzies Slime George Smitherman For Being Gay

The recording is here; words are about 20 minutes in. Totally disgusting and maybe actionable.  Sun TV must be so proud.  And I guess so must we all in T.O.  for being the people who elected Mr. Ford mayor.  Because he seemed to approve.

Update: just to elaborate, at about the 20 minute mark Sun TV  personality David Menzies goes all hypothetical wondering why its OK to criticize Ford for his weight when is not OK to criticize George Smitherman for engaging in dangerous gay sex and doing all sorts of drugs and maybe dying in office from  AIDS if he'd ever been voted in.  As an aside, Menzies suggests that The Star sent their most effeminate reporter (Daniel Dale) to spy on Ford so it would be a bigger deal if Ford slugged 'em.  And the Ford brothers didn't pitch this noxious prick off their show.

Coming Soon To Sun TV

...this: Menzoid Mornings.  And soon to be leaving the air shortly thereafter, I imagine. If you've never heard of him, and I'm sure you haven't, David Menzies appears to have made a journalistic niche out of getting stopped by police and then writing about it.
