Of all the reports of sexual harassment that have oozed out of Hollywood over the last few weeks, this one stings the most.
Kater Gordon, who wrote on the hit AMC series Mad Men, has accused the show’s creator, Matthew Weiner, of telling her that ‘she owed it him to let him see her naked,’ as reported on Thursday by The Information.

This story cuts particularly deep because Mad Men was such an effective skewering of workplace sexism and harassment. While Jon Hamm’s gradually disintegrating advertising genius took centre stage, the show’s heart arguably lay in Elisabeth Moss’s Peggy Olson, who rose from being Draper’s secretary and typist to a respected copywriter with her own office.
Along the way, she has to deal with an endless parade...
