Mark Halperin, the NBC and MSNBC analyst who co-authored the bestselling 2008 election postmortem "Game Change," is leaving both networks after five women accused him of sexual harassment in a CNN report published Wednesday.
Halperin allegedly grabbed a woman's breasts without consent and pressed his clothed, erect penis against three of his co-workers. The "Morning Joe" regular denied those allegations, according to CNN, but did not specifically deny the women's accusations that he had propositioned them for sex.
Halperin admited to CNN Wednesday night that his conduct was inappropriate, and he said he would take time away from his role as a senior political analyst at NBC and MSNBC.

Former New Republic literary editor Leon Wieseltier was one whose name was on the list, according to a copy obtained by POLITICO, and he may have been its first casualty. On Tuesday, an organization supported by Laurene Powell Jobs, the philanthropist and widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, severed ties with Wieseltier over “inappropriate workplace conduct” at the magazine he worked at for more than three decades. Wieseltier had been accused of “workplace harassment” on the list.

A BuzzFeed News spokesperson added, “We cannot discuss specific personnel matters, but we take allegations of inappropriate conduct extremely seriously, including anonymous ones.”
According to one BuzzFeed staffer, the names on the list weren’t a total surprise to many — and that the reputations of the men named on it preceded them. “Nothing in the spreadsheet really seemed like new information,” the staff member said. “It’s less of a big topic than you might expect.”
