I vote, present?"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

I hate cancel culture so much. Every time anybody (on either side) messes up the mob clamors for the person to be fired. So stupid.
This guy has suffered plenty. Clearly he did not intent to expose himself."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Any janitor in America caught jerking off in a bathroom stall while on a work break would be fired.
And it’s not like this is his first sexual controversy. The dude cheated on his wife, had a kid, denied the kid was his and was forced to have a paternity test.

So the mob decides that he should be fired because ... priviledge! Tell us again how this isn't cancel culture. Give me a break.
I couldn't care less about his personal life. Relevance?
He should be fired because he masturbated, on a video, in front of coworkers and technically the world. How does anyone view any of his work over the next 1-2 years without referencing this incident. As an employer why put up with the liability?
His personal life is a piece to this because it may demonstrate the dude might not have much discipline with his penis. You want to get your political/law takes from a dude who doesn’t know how a condom works?
Really weird you think this is cancel culture.

I had a hard time with this one. Ultimately I thought he should be fired, but I was close to saying give him another chance. I could still be persuaded of the latter. But I don't think this was exactly innocent. Some of the witnesses described him looking at what they thought was another screen. Probably had pornhub up on his other laptop.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Yeah, not sure how this is "cancel culture" (whatever that means). The guy was caught masturbating during work on a work video chat. Seems like it would be a fireable offense for anyone.
(BTW, can you imagine a more boring zoom call (pre-masturbation, obvs; I'll bet people perked up then!)? Sounds like they were war-gaming the election? With JT representing the "courts?" Woof.)

CNN might have more trouble terminating him for cause since the Zoom call was not connected to CNN. There's probably some clause that covers them in this type of situation, though.
