It's a computer voice but I found his response very telling, and interesting. Sam Harris responds below. Btw the supposed source of one of these allegations is a former director of the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. That's also the home of Wilfrid Laurier University and a robust community of science-denying social justice retards.

Allegations of sexual misconduct[edit]
In a February 2018 article whose allegations "range from offensive comments to groping and non-consensual sexual advances”[19] BuzzFeed reported a variety of sexual misconduct claims against Krauss.[20] Krauss responded that the article was "slanderous" and "factually incorrect.” [19]
In response to the BuzzFeed article, Arizona State University stated that it had received no complaints related to Krauss from students, faculty or staff during his decade as a professor there, but would begin an internal investigation, calling for anyone with concerns to express them.[19] Several organizations also canceled scheduled talks by Krauss.[19] Krauss resigned from the position of chair of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists Board of Sponsors, to avoid "[distracting] from the ability of the Bulletin to effectively carry out [its] work.”[4]On March 6, 2018, Arizona State University placed Krauss on paid leave “to avoid further disruption to the normal course of business as the university continues to gather facts about the allegations.”[21]
In a public statement linked to and quoted by The New York Times and others, Krauss apologized "to anyone he made feel intimidated or uncomfortable," but stressed that the BuzzFeed article "ignored counter-evidence, distorted the facts and made absurd claims about me."[22][21]

It is now stunningly easy to destroy a successful dude who is a public figure. Just a few words, some innuendo, a badly-written article, and Bob's your uncle.

Ditto. I'm still pissed they got that Nobel Prize winner fired a few years ago for a crappy joke.
