He said his time out of the air was spent “trying to be a better person,” working on his next book about the Oklahoma City bombing, getting therapy and working at a food bank.

Toobin was mocked after the incident by Jimmy Fallon, Donald Trump Jr. and Saturday Night Live, among others.
[23] Among the defenders was former New Yorker editor Tina Brown, who said that “27 years of excellent reporting and commitment to The New Yorker should have been weighed against an incident that terribly embarrassed the magazine, but more importantly embarrassed himself himself.” Author and journalist Malcolm Gladwell said he “read Condé Nast`s press release, and I was confused because I couldn`t find any intellectual justification for what they were doing.” [3] Born in Saint Paul, Minnesota,[11] Coates lives in Washington, D.C. with her husband and two children. [11] Toobin`s analysis has not been unwavering and he has become something of a bogeyman for some conservatives for his frank comments about former President Donald Trump.
