    Wow, that statement from his rep is one of the most douchebagly things I have ever read.

        “It is disappointing to see that these alleged distractors are able to monetize false allegations against Mr. Cosby,” Andrew Wyatt, a rep for Cosby, tells Rolling Stone. “Even more disturbing, the Merson Law Firm (New York City) decided to incite this lynching of this American Citizen. I am reminded of a photo a man hanging from a tree burning, as the plantation owner hosted a barbecue and party for the slaves as this Black Man was being roasted alive, without the sheer facts of any evidence, proof, truth or facts

          And I am reminded of the Boondocks episode about R Kelly.

      There aren’t a lot of people with souls lining up to represent an inhuman monster.

    When I was a kid my parents had The Best of Bill Cosby on record. I wore that vinyl out playing it over and over. I memorized the bits. I bought all the cassettes I could find. I have vague memories of Fat Albert on Saturday morning. And some movie where he played the devil. And The Cosby Show. I wanted to be Bill Cosby when I grew up.

    Has any other beloved celebrity fallen as far as Cosby? I mean he was universally considered to be a genuinely nice guy. He was America’s Dad.

      Oh yeah, I feel the same way. I grew up on the Himself special. I can recite a lot of the “chocolate cake for breakfast” part from memory I saw it so many times. And I will never, ever watch it again. I hate it because we’ve basically had to abandon a great talent, but it’s necessary. The same with Woody Allen and Roman Polanski. Put all of their work in a vault, seal it up and let future generations decide how they are to be remembered.
