The New Yorker has suspended reporter Jeffrey Toobin. Sources tell VICE it’s because he exposed himself during a Zoom call last week between members of the New Yorker and WNYC radio.

Toobin said in a statement to Motherboard: “I made an embarrassingly stupid mistake, believing I was off-camera. I apologize to my wife, family, friends and co-workers.”

“I believed I was not visible on Zoom. I thought no one on the Zoom call could see me. I thought I had muted the Zoom video,” he added.

New Yorker spokesperson Natalie Raabe said: “Jeffrey Toobin has been suspended while we investigate the matter.”

Toobin’s Conde Nast email has been disabled and he has not tweeted since October 13. He did, however, appear on CNN, where he is the network’s chief legal analyst, on Saturday. CNN did not respond to a request for comment.

Just a little reminder of where Jeffrey is coming from:

Just so it's clear. @realDonaldTrump today called for @BarackObama and @JoeBiden to be indicted and prosecuted. Have our standards fallen so far that this kind of antidemocratic authoritarian behavior passes without criticism? Is this now normal?

Have our standards fallen so far that exposing oneself on a Zoom conference passes without criticism? Is this now normal? Apparently, for Jeffrey, it is.  :laugh:


Come see me sometime!

No Wonder Jeff Toobin Wants Abortion So Badly, He Once Allegedly Gave His Mistress Money To Have One
By  Paul Bois
Jun 28, 2018   DailyWire.com


Since Anthony Kennedy announced he will be retiring from the Supreme Court, CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin has gone into panic mode over the fate of Roe v. Wade. Immediately, he began sounding the alarm that so-called “abortion rights” as we know it are effectively “doomed” in the United States ...

According to NY Daily News, Toobin has some deeply personal reasons to fret over abortion being doomed, because he once allegedly offered his mistress, Casey Greenfield, money to have one.

“Greenfield, now 36, was in her 20s when she fell for Toobin, now 49, even though he was wed to Amy McIntosh, the Harvard sweetheart he’d married in 1986 and who gave him two children,” the NY Daily News reported in 2010. “In 2008, when Greenfield became pregnant, and when she told Toobin the news, he offered her ‘money if she’d have an abortion,’ says a source. He also allegedly offered to pay for her to have another child later via a sperm donor.”

Thankfully, Casey Greenfield did not get the abortion and had the child, a son. Despite Toobin’s initial fight, he eventually did acquiesce to a paternity test, which indeed confirmed him as the father. ...

He has a certain HunterBidenish vibe about him, doesn't he?

Need a comment from master troll Don Jr.
"I’d like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all Americans I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem...

To demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol: you have defiled the seat of American democracy. To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction: you do not represent our country. And to those who broke the law: you will pay." - President Donald J. Trump, January 7th, 2021

The call was an election simulation featuring New Yorker all-stars.
He must have misunderstood when someone said, "election simulation."

Well maybe the guy was Japanese and just learned English.

It looks like Jeffrey should have left the Toob-in instead of out.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

What goes through a person's mind to do that? How does a person think that while they're on some social internet forum where millions of people might be watching, to take out one's member and start doing what he did?
Was he on drugs? Who knows.
