Even prior to the pandemic, a sizable percentage of American workers were well-acquainted with the midday wank. For he has drawn attention to a uniquely 2020 phenomenon: people beating off while working from home. If we take Toobin at his word and accept that the exposure was unintentional, then in a way he has actually done us a great public service. A New Yorker spokesperson also told Vice that Toobin has been “suspended while we investigate the matter” (which, because it is the New Yorker, will hopefully involve the famed publication’s HR department reviewing the footage while wearing a little monocle). I thought I had muted the Zoom video,” he said in what is perhaps the most boomer summation of video-conferencing technology ever uttered. I thought no one on the Zoom call could see me.

In a statement to Vice about the initial allegations, Toobin claimed showing his penis to his coworkers was in error: “I believed I was not visible on Zoom. More importantly, two sources claimed Toobin had been seen masturbating on the call. A few hours later, however, they updated to include some juicy new details: first, that the call had been an election simulation featuring some of the New Yorker’s most prominent names, including Masha Gessen and Jane Mayer. Initially, the article reported simply that Toobin exposed himself during a Zoom call with the staff of the New Yorker and WNYC Radio.

ĭetails about what was referred to by Vice as the “Zoom Dick Incident” are few, but continue to emerge.

Famed legal analyst, The Run of His Life author, and New Yorker staff writer Jeffrey Toobin is proof of this, per reporting from Vice. But if nothing else, the pandemic is testament to the indefatigability of the human spirit, and when there is a will, there is a way. Social distancing protocols have made actions such as exposing oneself to horrified observers more difficult, if not impossible.
