Oh no...what will Rogers do now.

I hear John Tory might be available.
He can have his own "marriage advice" segment. 

Well, that could work. He has broadcast experience and we know he always gets up early...

I wonder what the reaction would be given his illicit dalliance. It would be hard for him to reclaim the high road, at least in the interim, but perhaps the passage of time could escalate a return.

Would the audience accept him knowing what he's admitted to? In these politically sensitive times, I'm not so sure.

Unless there is more to the story that we don't know about, I think overall history will be kind to John Tory.  There will always be the trolls who love to wallow in other's misfortune and embarrassments.  And those who live in glass houses that shouldn't be throwing rocks at anyone.  

Most Torontonians I feel understand that John is a good man and as mayor he worked very hard for the city that he obviously loves.  How can anyone really fault that?  There are a fair number of people who think he doesn't need to resign and this number could very well grow in the days ahead. 
 
Some don't like him because he is rich, came from a privileged background, and has been successful in business.  That is just envy and their problem, not Tory's.  If John Tory eventually comes back in some capacity in media, the vast majority of viewers/listeners won't have an issue with this at all IMHO.  

If this is indeed entirely her decision, good for her. You only live this life once. A lot of churn at Citytv recently. I wonder if we'll come to know years down the road that it was more of a "tap on the shoulder" situation. Her salary given her longevity there and prominence in that co-host role has got to be pretty high.

Also, I've never quite understood posters' topic-starting habits here with threads that just list a first name and last name and nothing else. On this board, that convention has come to mean they've passed away! But it doesn't tell one anything meaningful about why to click into a thread. Why not a more meaningful thread subject decision like "Dina Pugliese Leaving Breakfast Television"? In old-school journalism "slug" terminology, a slug of just a first and last name is woefully incomplete.
