So perhaps this is an example of effective public shaming.

She calls him out on twitter.

He is forced to examine the situation. Maybe a few colleagues give him honest feedback as well.

He realizes he was a douchebag and admits it.

She feels vindicated and maybe everyone is better off at the end of the day.

Maybe social media isn't only a tool for evil.

What did he do? Ask her out on a date or something?

Not sure...
He says "I said horrible things"...
Whatever that adds up to.

My point is... it prompted self reflection on his part...
Maybe he's a better person for it.

Sounds like he asked her on a date or tried to flirt with her. Leftist women see a man they are not attracted to trying to flirt with them as sexual assault. Also, a man they do find attractive and who does not flirt with them is a misogynist.

I dunno sounds to me like he was a creepy boss who bullied his employee.

I don't know why you want to make excuses for him. He isn't making excuses for himself.

Sounds like he was being a shitty person, he got called out and now he's owning up to that.

Good on him. More people should take ownership when they have been shitty. Men and women alike.

Its not easy to do.... it's easier to blame other people for our shitty behaviour.

He is a show runner, she is a young writer on a that show. Like most liberal men there is a lot of passive aggressive bullshit they throw up. Like instead of asking her out outright or saying horrible things straight to her face, he probably did it in the context of the "creative process." And thought he was getting away with something or convinced himself he wasn't anything wrong.

Read it.
Reaped no benefits.
Just that creepy voyeur vibe like when your relatives start spilling the angry details of their sex life at Thanksgiving.

Don’t know why this woman needed Twitter to confront her harasser. Don’t know why the harasser needs a podcast to vent his demons at the rest of us.
Sad.

Overall yes this is the correct take but Dan Harmon is one of those preachy leftist that say it's ok to punch people you disagree with, just call them a Nazi first. A real GCF, but this one has a modicum of talent.

Maybe he has undiagnosed restless cock syndrome. I feel sorry for him.
