New Yorker Suspends Jeffrey Toobin for Zoom D**k Incident
In a statement to VICE, Jeffrey Toobin apologized for the "embarrassingly stupid mistake."
by Laura Wagner
October 19, 2020, 2:07pmThe 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.â€
“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.â€
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:Jeffrey Toobin @JeffreyToobin
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:

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.â€
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. ...

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

Dicpic scandal, why not. Nothing surprises me this year.
Whatta idiot though. Years building a reputation as a TV legal analyst and now this goofy crap is all anyone will remember him for.

Incredible.

Well maybe the guy was Japanese and just learned English.
Trying to give the benefit of the doubt here.

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.

It's not fair, really they should have some type of Affirmative Action for unemployed guys that have very small p*nises.

Ah that's it. Erection stimulation. Anyone could have misread the memo.

The mispronunciation of 'L' s as 'R's is a phenomenon commonly attributed to Asians.
Is there a Chinese connection?

I figured CNN was the affirmative action employer for that very sort of guy.
Case in point:

UPDATE
Thank goodness this story hasn't gone away! (Just kidding). More details emerge in Jeffrey Toobin Zoom masturbation scandal
By Tamar Lapin
December 15, 2020 | 4:56pm
More details emerged Tuesday in Jeffrey Toobin’s caught-on-Zoom masturbation saga — as Malcolm Gladwell and others rushed to the disgraced journalist’s defense.
New Yorker staff writer Masha Gessen described in a New York Times article the now-infamous Oct. 15 video call that led to Toobin’s fall from grace.
“It wasn’t a full-out sexual act, but it was much more than a second,†Gessen said. “I was really, truly shocked.†...
Despite his supposed downfall, Toobin is holding on to his post as senior legal analyst at CNN, where he’s on leave, and has several Hollywood projects in development, the Times reported. ...

Ugh, just go away, already.
