Jeffrey Toobin’s CNN return after Zoom call was a class in performative accountability
Jeffrey Toobin’s return to CNN as a legal analyst on Thursday was a master class in how to evade accountability. The subsequent outrage — pointing out the gendered double standards at play and the hypocrisy of “cancel culture” — underscores larger societal problems. Toobin got eight whole minutes of airtime to reframe and retell his now-infamous story. In doing so, Toobin demonstrated how culture can work in the service of men but also how it lacks the institutional apparatuses necessary for effective accountability generally.
