Former Community writer Megan Ganz: Why I accepted Dan Harmon’s apology for sexually harassing me

The New York Times

“The most important part of the apology was its specificity,” Ganz tells The New York Times. “He gave a complete account of what he did. Not the salacious details that people focus on — was it in a bar? what time? who was there? — but the ugly little realities. He knew that I didn’t welcome his advances. He did it anyway. He treated me differently than he treated the male writers. And when people confronted him about it, he lied.” She adds: “The irony is, Dan was the only person who could wipe those doubts from my head. That’s why I was able to accept his apology. Because I felt vindicated, to others but more importantly to myself.”
