. . . "In fact, that's the single most disturbing aspect of the entire incident, and one that has no doubt caused many of us to be stricken with a new phobia: the fear of getting on Zoom meetings."
P.F. Whalen . . . "For clarity, and contrary to Ms. Lazarus's suggestion, it seems obvious that Toobin's race has had no role in his employers' disinterest in discipline or the media's lack of accountability. Toobin is getting a pass not because he is white, but because he is a leftist who hates Donald Trump and conservatives, and who works for CNN. If a non-white person had behaved similarly, he would likely be treated the same as Toobin, provided he were on the left. Imagine if an identical incident happened with a conservative legal pundit from Fox News. Would the media be satisfied with an explanation of "my mistake was not that I was playing with myself during a business meeting; I just screwed up by allowing my laptop's camera to show it"? We all know the answer.
"The larger tale is how this mindset continues to infect the entire left and its media. When email messages from Hillary Clinton, John Podesta, and other Democrats at the DNC became public knowledge in 2016, the focus of Democrats and the mainstream media was not on the content of those emails, some of which was highly damaging to the Clinton campaign. No one from the DNC disputed their authenticity, but all the media wanted to talk about was how they were acquired. Those mean old Russians did this, and how dare they let the American public know the truth about how we operate?" . . .
