\u201cWe were all stranded in this one room listening to this crazy scene,\u201d Murray mentioned. \u201cI dunno what prompted me to do it. It\u2019s something that I had done to someone else before, and I thought it was funny, and every time it happened, it was funny.\u201d<\/p>\n

Murray informed the outlet that he doesn\u2019t go \u201ctoo many days or weeks without thinking of what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt still bothers me because that movie was stopped by the human rights or \u2018H&R\u2019 of the Disney corporation,\u201d the Ghostbusters <\/em>actor mentioned. \u201cIt turned out there were pre-existing conditions and all this kind of stuff. I\u2019m like, what? How was anyone supposed to know anything like that? There was no conversation, there was nothing. There was no peacemaking, nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Murray beforehand addressed the misconduct allegations throughout an look on CNBC<\/a> in May 2022, when he described the incident as a \u201cdifference of opinion.\u201d<\/p>\n
