CNN chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin has returned to the network following a 8-month absence after being caught masturbating during a Zoom call with his colleagues from the New Yorker. In his return segment to the network, Toobin was confronted by CNN Newsroom anchor Alisyn Camerota — who summarized the events that led to his hiatus. “In October, you were on a Zoom call with your colleagues from the New Yorker magazine,” Camerota said to Toobin. “Everyone took a break for several minutes, during which time you were caught masturbating on camera. You were subsequently fired from that job, after 27 years of working there. And you, since then, have been on leave from CNN. Do I have all that right? “You got it all right,” Toobin replied. “Sad to say.” Camerota then confronted him by quoting Jay Leno’s famous opening salvo in a 1995 interview with Hugh Grant, after he was arrested for soliciting prostitution. “What the hell were you thinking?” Camerota asked Toobin.
