I didn't see a thread on this... interesting.

As I'm sure you've all heard by now, our beloved Bill Cosby has been accused of sexual misconduct. (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,146770,00.html) Well now someone else has spoken up. (http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/news/020805_ent_cosby.html)

I found it interesting while searching online that onlyminor news sources were available... eventually I was able to find it on Fox.

I wonder what is/was your first reaction upon hearing this news. Is it yet another celebrity whose humanity is showing? Are you disgusted? Shocked!? Do you believe the charges?

He has apparently admitted to relations with the first woman, however consentual. He has said he does not recollect the 2nd woman at all.

What say you!?

I say I don't care. Maybe it's just me tonight, but I'm getting a little tabloid overload from all the celebrity criminal acts of the moment. Right now this seems a he said/she said deal so I have to assign it the requisite interest (which is nada).

It is interesting to note that whenever someone makes the news politically as Cosby recently did with his characterization of the black community sucking big time, lo and behold we've got some skeletons coming out of the closet.

I never want to take rape or sexual harassment lightly, but... Governor Arnold, anyone?

He certainly isn't my beloved Bill Cosby. Richard Pryor is my idea of a beloved black man.

The news of this, which I heard on the Howard Stern show (another beloved man) didn't register on my shocked or disgusted scale. With stories in the news such as those poor kids in FLA who were starved, beaten and tortured, I find my disgust and shock used up by actions such as that. The dalliances of a has been comic and actor
aren't even on the screen.
