My point is that Naughty Dog, as a company that has close of 300 employees, can't be responsible of what an employee says to a reporter in God knows what context.
I condemn the statement from yesterday, even if Ballard's story may end up being a lie, but this last case is more "Dude who works on X harrased a girl, let's blame X instead of the dude". You can change X with Naughty Dog, EA, Verizon, the store a couple of blocks down the street, whatever. The culprit is the dude, and they are the ones that should be persecuted.
Of course, if you prove me that within the Naughty Dog team, they promote this kind of behavior in any way, that's another whole story, and then I would blaim Naughty Dog.
