Keillor told the Associated Press in an email he was fired over "a story that I think is more interesting and more complicated than the version MPR heard." He told The Star Tribune in a separate message his hand went up the back of a woman's shirt "about six inches" after he tried to "pat her back."

"She recoiled. I apologized. I sent her an email of apology later and she replied that she had forgiven me and not to think about it. We were friends. We continued to be friendly right up until her lawyer called," Keillor told the state's largest newspaper.
