I guess there's a bunch more fodder out there that contextualizes this.
I was following along a bit on Twitter when Wyshnyski announced Mooney's dismissal, and my impression is that this was neither an isolated incident, nor was there only one person he... propositioned. Mooney even alludes to this himself in his apology.

Ultimately, this stands as yet another reminder that if you are a professional, you need to conduct yourself professionally. Mooney failed that, and lost his position with Yahoo as a result.
