In embarrassing news out of Canada today, Toronto Mayor Rob Ford admitted to smoking crack cocaine about a year ago, "probably in one of my drunken stupors," but vowed to remain in office. The confession — which came after months of dodged questions and denials by Ford, his staffers, and his brother — appeared to be the climax in long-simmering political scandal; a scandal ignited in May by the US news website Gawker , which first reported to have seen a recent video of Ford smoking crack cocaine. But another shoe may have just dropped on Ford: Vice is now claiming to have obtained proof that Ford's communications director sought the services of a hacker to try and delete the alleged crack-smoking video from a file hosting website.
