If cell phones are banned from all venues next year, here's the man to thank

...and the rest is history: Nov. 6, 2014: An Associated Press reporter asks Cosby to comment on the rape allegations. Cosby responds, but as soon as the interview wraps, he begins bullying the reporter to promise the footage won't be shown if he has any "integrity." That's a very impressive amount of fallout considering that it's been only two months! But it turns out just have been just a warmup... |

But what does up-and-coming comedian Hannibal Buress have to say about the firestorm he sparked by describing comedian icon Bill Cosby as a rapist? According to CBS News.com: Quote:
Suppose Buress had called Cosby a "skirt chaser" or a "sex addict" instead of a rapist? Well, a Google search of "Hannibal Buress" yields 532,000 results; "Bill Cosby Rape," 51,600,000 results; "Bill Cosby Skirt Chaser," 3,140,000 results; "Bill Cosby sex addict," 2,250,000 results. Would somebody have decided it merited filming and uploading? If so, would somebody else have a) decided that she couldn't remain silent about her experiences with Cosby any longer or b) saw it as a perfect opportunity get either revenge or cash? And most important of all, would the joke have been as funny? Buress has overturned Bill Cosby's world while the truth is still looking for its boots -- and perhaps overturned his own world as well. He'd better hope that Cosby doesn't develop an "interest" in suing him for defamation. Skirt chasing is a bad habit and sex addiction is an illness, but rape is a CRIME -- a crime that Cosby has NOT been convicted of. And like I said, if concert venues start banning mobile devices from now on, you won't have to wonder why. There's another very old saying about the road to hell being paved with good intentions... |

I had heard rumors about this for years - but that's all they were (as far as I was concerned).
To have it confirmed and to realize that he admitted this in 2005 and it was hushed up is disgusting. |
Bill Cosby is one of those people you would never think would do something like this. He's always come across as intelligent, ethical, upstanding, and worthy of respect--until all these allegations came to light in the last year or so.
THAT is why I haven't ever gotten a Bon Jovi tattoo and always say I'll never get a tattoo of a name unless it's one of my cats or I give birth to it. You NEVER know about a person, no matter how much integrity they SEEM to have, you don't know what they are hiding in their personal life. |
I pulled the plug on Cosby in 1997 after that Autumn Jackson business. He retracted his denial that he'd had an affair with her mother, and paid them $100,000 over twenty years. But there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe that it is even POSSIBLE that Cosby is Autumn's father?

Epilouge...and epitaph
GuardianUK.com: “If you give a woman – or a man, for that matter, without his or her knowledge – a drug, and then have sex with that person without consent, that’s rape,” President Barack Obama said...“Any civilized country should have no tolerance for rape.” P.S. The Comedy Central TV series Why? With Hannibal Buress made its debut two weeks ago. |
I spoke too soon about his epitaph

And New York Magazine was hacked with a denial of service attack and was taken down so that no one could read this. Here is the the NY Times story about it:
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/28/bu...T.nav=top-news After Hours Offline, New York Magazine’s Website Comes Back On Sunday evening, New York magazine posted a stark, black-and-white cover of its latest issue, featuring 35 women who have accused the comedian Bill Cosby of sexual abuse. Hours later, the magazine’s website went offline, and the article was inaccessible on Monday morning. “Our site is experiencing technical difficulties. We are aware of the issue, and working on a fix,” the magazine posted to its main Twitter account early Monday morning. Around noon on Monday, the site was back online. Lauren Starke, a spokeswoman for the magazine, said in an email that she had nothing to add beyond the information posted on Twitter. But on Twitter, a user who goes by Vikingdom2016 claimed responsibility for an attack on the site. The goal of this attack, also referred to as denial-of-service attack, is to shut down a website under a flood of traffic. In an interview with the website Daily Dot, the hacker, also known as ThreatKing, said the attack was based on a hatred for New York, and was not related to the cover that features Mr. Cosby’s accusers. “I have not even seen the cover, LOL,” he told the website over Skype on Monday. And with that, the voices of women who had refrained from going public with their accusations against Mr. Cosby were again interrupted. As the website remained offline, editors were working to find other ways to publish the piece, which the magazine said took six months of work. On Monday morning, the magazine began posting audio related to the cover article on Instagram.
