Jeffrey Toobin

I was on a conference call and it was clear one of the men were JO. Finally someone said....your mic is on. We all knew who it was. He didn't get fired. This is DoD

People who expose themselves in public usually get arrested.

Astonishing to me that grown men and women exhibit this little self control.

The guy wasn’t harassing anyone or trying to JO on camera for a female colleague. He was at his house, had a few spare minutes, and made a monumentally embarrassing mistake. There but for the grace of God.

Why is he somehow toxic from like a “me too” perspective after that?

If you masturbate while you’re on the job, you need to get help.

Not a big deal?? Do you want your daughter’s male teachers masturbating on Zoom?

He has a history - and no woman or BIPOC would have such a short time-out for poor behavior.

Seriously. Utter BS.

Yup. I’m a YLS grad in my 50s. I could quickly come up with a list of over 100 people that would do a better job that Toobin. And with right people in the room we could probably come up with at least 500. It’s not like he’s inventing the A-bomb here. There are a lot of people that can do that job as well as or better than him—and without showing their genitals to anyone they work with.

It's seriously compulsive behavior.

Nursing mothers get a pumping room. What’s good for the goose…

Yea but it’s also considered socially acceptable for women to nurse in public with one of those modesty covers. If I see a man masturbating under a sheet at a park or restaurant I’m calling the cops.

GTFO. I hope you are the earlier PP and there aren't 2 posters that actually think man masturbating during a work call is the same thing a woman feeding her child.

So you lack both the ability to understand a joke and the reading comprehension skills understand when someone agrees with you. Got it.

But sure, I absolutely want your opinion on things!

CNN's ratings are in the crapper.

So, their solution is - Let's bring Toobin back!!!

This, after Chris Cuomo was caught giving his brother advice on how to deal with the sexual allegations..... pretty much advising him to be defiant. With no repercussions from CNN.

CNN has issues with personnel here. Their standards are unacceptably low.

Toobin wrote a book saying, essentially, that what Patty Hearst did after being kidnapped and raped at 19 were demonstrations of her own free will, and that her Presidential pardons show how very privileged was.

Middle-aged guy whacking off while Zooming is just an oopsie, like pressuring his girlfriend to have an abortion and who knows what else.

He’s utterly disgusting and wholly without character. He’s also insipid and self-satisfied and isn’t that interesting or astute as a commentator. In a world with Dahlia Lithwick or Elie Mystal, we don’t need Toobin the douche. As much or more to the point, he’s nowhere near as talented as the colleagues he assaulted at The New Yorker. The call wasn’t over. He isn’t worth half a Jane Meyer or a Jelani Cobb. He SHOULD be jobless.

I agree with all of this except the Elie Mystal part. That guy may be a good writer or commentator, but he is not a good lawyer or good at legal analysis. I still remember this awful Good Samaritan argument he made. Just embarrassing.
