New Yorker Suspends Jeffrey Toobin for Masturbating on Zoom Call
Vice ^

Posted on 10/19/2020 2:46:41 PM PDT by qwerty1234

The New Yorker has suspended reporter Jeffrey Toobin for masturbating on a Zoom video chat between members of the New Yorker and WNYC radio last week. Toobin says he did not realize his video was on.

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

“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.

Two people who were on the call told Motherboard separately that the call was an election simulation featuring many of the New Yorker's biggest stars: Jane Mayer was playing establishment Republicans; Evan Osnos was Joe Biden, Jelani Cobb was establishment Democrats, Masha Gessen played Donald Trump, Andrew Marantz was the far right, Sue Halpern was left wing democrats, Dexter Filkins was the military, and Jeffrey Toobin playing the courts. There were also a handful of other producers on the call from the New Yorker and WNYC.

They all seem mentally defective in some significant way. And it always seems to involve sex with them.

Scott Adams was spot on in predicting something like this.

This is this weekend’s comic strip.

“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.

You thought it was muted and thought the camera was off...but were still doing this knowingly during a Zoom call. Seriously?

I think he confused “election simulation” with something else.

Toobin is a wanker. We already knew that he’s pulling for Joe and Commie-La.

This is a far cry from earlier reporting.
It went from simple Naked Zooming to a more involved Happy Ending Zoom.

A lot of the elite is depraved. Nazi elite as an example. And the Nomenklature in Soviet times. They don’t give a fig what the serfs think

Loping his pony on live TV. An edifying spectacle by our ruling elite.

Twitter has a pretty hilarious thing going where people are captioning typical New Yorker cartoons with “Jeffrey Toobin took his #$%& out on a zoom call.”
