Actress Rebecca Corry spoke to ABC News’ “Good Morning America” on Monday about her 2005 encounter with Louis C.K., in which she says he asked if he could masturbate in front of her in her dressing room. She called his behavior toward women in the industry an “open secret.”

“It was just actually sort of common knowledge in the comedy world; people made jokes about it all the time,” she said. Corry is one of five women the New York Times interviewed for its report on Louis C.K. that published last week. C.K. issued a statement in response to the sexual misconduct claims against him, saying “the stories are true” and that he wielded his power in the biz “irresponsibly.”

As she had told the Times, Corry told ABC she was working on a comedy pilot and did report the incident to the show’s producers, who suggested stopping production.

“I wanted to pretend like it never happened, to do my job,” Corry said of her reaction at the time. “Those opportunities were few and far between. I did not want to be the person responsible for shutting down production or being part of the narrative.”

Two years ago, C.K. called her to apologize, she said. Explaining that the incident — one of a cascade of sexual harassment claims being made by industry women and men — Corry said, “When you are that powerful and generating that kind of money, that’s what’s going to happen.”

In the wake of the Times report making this open secret a matter of public record, the Orchard pulled the release of C.K.’s film “I Love You, Daddy,” HBO pulled C.K. from its Nov. 18 special “A Night of Too Many Stars,” and the pay TV network also pulled all of the comedian’s content from its on-demand service. Netflix opted not to move ahead with a second C.K. stand-up special it was producing.

Also, FX, C.K.’s home for the past eight years, announced Friday that FX Networks and FX Productions have cut ties with C.K. and ended an overall deal with his Pig Newton productions. He no longer will serve as executive producer or receive compensation on any of the four shows the operation is producing with him: “Better Things,” “Baskets,” “One Mississippi” and “The Cops.” Meanwhile, TBS suspended production on “The Cops,” the animated series C.K. co-created with Albert Brooks.
