=== Thoughts on Zoom Misconduct (03:45) ===

[00:00:00]  Okay, guys, you won't see me do this often, but you have to watch this clip from CNN. Yes, I actually said it.
[00:00:08]  The Communist News Network, you gotta watch this clip.
[00:00:12]  They brought back Jeffrey Toobin seven months after he got caught doing a little something-something on a Zoom call.
[00:00:19]  Now, his defense, he thought the Zoom...
[00:00:22]  Video was off, which made it okay apparently to masturbate while in a meeting with your work colleagues.
[00:00:30]  This is CNN, folks.
[00:00:32]  Watch this. I guess I'll recap.
[00:00:34]  I'll do the honors. Help yourself.
[00:00:38]  Okay. In October, you were on a Zoom call with your colleagues from the New Yorker magazine.
[00:00:45]  Everyone took a break for several minutes, during which time you were caught masturbating on camera.
[00:00:53]  You were subsequently fired from that job after 27 years of working there.
[00:00:58]  And you, since then, have been on leave from CNN. Do I have all that right?
[00:01:02]  You got it all right.
[00:01:04]  Sad to say. Okay, so let's start there.
[00:01:07]  To quote Jay Leno, what the hell were you thinking?
[00:01:11]  Well, obviously I wasn't thinking very well or very much and it was something that was inexplicable to me.
[00:01:19]  I think one point, I wouldn't exactly say in my defense because nothing is really in my defense, I didn't think I was on the call.
[00:01:27]  I didn't think other people could see me.
[00:01:29]  You thought that you had turned off your camera?
[00:01:32]  Correct. I thought that I had turned off the Zoom call.
[00:01:35]  Now, that's not a defense.
[00:01:36]  This was deeply moronic and indefensible.
[00:01:40]  But, I mean, that is part of the story.
[00:01:46]  And, you know, I have spent the seven subsequent months, miserable months in my life, I can certainly Confess.
[00:01:54]  Trying to be a better person.
[00:01:56]  I mean, in therapy, trying to do some public service, working in a food bank, which I certainly am going to continue to do, working on a new book.
[00:02:04]  Well, guys, I'm glad he had seven months to think about it.
[00:02:07]  He's working at a food kitchen to make him realize that maybe, maybe playing with yourself while at work on a Zoom call, whether the video is on or off, is in fact wrong.
[00:02:21]  Probably not a great idea.
[00:02:23]  I mean, you know, during the lockdown, Jeffrey, wasn't there plenty of other time throughout the day where you weren't on a Zoom call where you could take care of yourself?
[00:02:32]  I mean, I would think that you'd be able to make some time.
[00:02:36]  Between CNN and The New Yorker, you're not that busy, okay?
[00:02:39]  You guys put out a lot of garbage.
[00:02:41]  It doesn't take much to come up with this crap.
[00:02:43]  So, I think you'd be able to do it a little bit better.
[00:02:47]  I think you'd be able to hold off just a few minutes till that Zoom call ended, but I'm glad you're figuring it out.
[00:02:56]  I'm glad you're realizing now that it was wrong to not just hold off for a couple minutes for the Zoom call to end, that you could just turn off the cameras and listen to your coworkers as you pleasure yourself.
[00:03:07]  And I hope...
[00:03:09]  I hope that they see this and just have that visual of what you were doing while listening to their voices, trying to get, I assume, create whatever propaganda CNN is going to put up next on while you're doing that.
[00:03:23]  Because I'm not sure that's something that I could ever get out of my mind.
[00:03:27]  That'd be a swing thought that would haunt me for the rest of my life if I was your coworkers.
[00:03:31]  And I surely hope they don't think about that each and every time you're on the air, buddy.
[00:03:36]  Keep up the good work.
[00:03:38]  We need more like you in this business.
[00:03:40]  It makes everyone else realize how big a clowns the media truly is.
