Instructive to see male journalists in the US defending a male journalist in the US after he was fired for masturbating during a Zoom work call. Makes you wonder:
1. How many do it
2. How casually they regard work sexual harassment
3. How reliably they report on sexual harassment

And “worker protections are shit” said in all seriousness about a privileged male journalist & TV commentator who is probably quite rich thank you during a pandemic when millions are unemployed and on the verge of eviction and not because they wank in front of their co-workers!

Also, Toobin - who is 60yo and should apparently know better, does not seem to know better

Also, Toobin is not what you want to defend

So I hope the co-workers of these male journalists who regard Toobin as the victim worth saving, are taking notes and asking about actual “worker protection” *against* and not *for* sexual harassers and their defenders in their workplaces.
