Veteran journalist Mark Halperin has been accused of sexually harassing women while he worked at ABC News, according to a new report.
Halperin, who left ABC around a decade ago, apologized when confronted with the claims, reported by CNN's Oliver Darcy, and said he would "step back" from media appearances in response.
Halperin's work at ABC, which took place over a decade ago, was reportedly marked by unwanted sexual advances that included groping, propositions, and forcing himself on women at the network.
ABC told Darcy that no complaints had been filed against Halperin, but Halperin seemed to acknowledge wrongdoing in a statement to CNN.
