Jeffrey Toobin Returns To CNN Despite Masturbating On Zoom Call
Jeffrey Toobin made a return to CNN on Thursday after the “deeply moronic and indefensible,” masturbation scandal that had his junk out on zoom.
“I feel like we should address what’s happened in the months since we’ve seen you,” CNN reporter Alisyn Camerota said to Toobin upon his return. “To quote Jay Leno, ‘What the hell were you thinking?’”

Toobin responded,
“I didn’t think other people could see me.”
“I have tried, and I am trying now, to say how sorry I am, sincerely, in all seriousness. Above all, I am sorry to my wife and to my family but I am also sorry to the people on the Zoom call, I’m sorry to my former colleagues at the New Yorker, I’m sorry to my current, fortunately, still colleagues at CNN and I’m sorry to the people who read my work and who watched me on CNN and who thought I was a better person than this.”
In October, Toobin was caught jacking off during an election Zoom with the New Yorker. He was then fired from the New Yorker and took a leave of absence from CNN. He is now back as a chief legal analyst.
