Ford Motor Company Wants Nothing To Do With Toronto Mayor Rob Ford
After the embattled mayor admitted to using crack cocaine while in office, some of his supported created shirts that said "Ford Nation" - and they used the well-known oval logo in their designs. The car manufacturer quickly vowed to protect their iconic image from being misused in support of Mayor Ford. A company spokesman said, "Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped." Somehow, despite the drug use and his refusal to step down, the Toronto mayor still has supporters. No news on whether Chevy has warned Rob Ford's supporters to stay away from their tag line – "built like a rock" – but we doubt that they'd approve.
