Subject: CNN Reporter Exposes More than Just News Stories

Written By: LyricBoy on 10/19/20 at 6:51 pm

Seems that one of the CNN reporters was in a company Zoom conference call, and exposed more than the latest poll results.

Isn't suspending/firing him a bit much? It sounds like it was an honest mistake. But then again idk how he can hold his head up (no pun) at work after this.

With the cancel culture in full effect, this event will likely have no happy ending.

I must admit, it just made me laugh when I read about this.

I wouldn't have laughed if he did it intentionally which would have been VERY creepy. But an OOPS? How in the world can you basically say, "Oops, I didn't know I was masturbating during a Zoom meeting"?

About 30 years ago I was working in a manufacturing plant. One of the guys on midnight turn had a “crush” on one of the office girls over in the Maintenance Department. So naturally he thought it would be a nice gesture if he, uh, pleasured himself all over the little Energizer Bunny doll that was at her desk. :o  Sounds crazy but you can’t make this stuff up.

I forget how he was identified as the defiler of the Bunny, but he was immediately terminated.

His union rep stopped over to my office and said “this is probably the first time the boss can say he fired somebody for jerking off on the job, and really mean it!”  ;D

A question that several of us all pondered years ago.  ;D

Hope he cleaned up that mess afterwards.
