Noah Bradley had one of the worst apologies I have ever seen while being canceled. Like, Kevin Spacey levels of bad. Publicly stating that "Yes, I was one of those shitty, creepy sexual predators you hear about" was one of the worst things you could possibly say. The headlines ran wild with that.
Pretty interesting to read what the aftermath was

The "38 Laws of Power" was the icing on the shit storm, which made everything he said post-cancellation seem even more insincere and like disingenuous manipulation. That taste still remains today - he was a notorious douchebag, but he never thought he'd get obliterated by the massive reckoning that hit him.
