BILL COSBY ACCUSED OF RAPE

[username]

Interesting. It really surprises me that all three of you would honestly say nothing and lose everything you'd worked for if you were innocent -- just throw in the towel for fear of being questioned. Not me.

I wouldn't wanna be a celebrity in the first place. But, if that was something that I worked my whole life toward and reaching the top was something I'd achieved and valued above virtually all else, I'd never limp off in silence like a defeated little bitch if I was wrongly accused by anyone(s). Not if if I was 47, nor if I was 77 -- like Cosby. He's still working on a lot of projects, he's not old and decrepit FFS. He could live another 20 years.

Anyway, I would set the effin' record straight by releasing a statement, doing an interview, or filing defamation suits -- like all of the other wrongly accused celebrities before me who were successful enough to quash such extortion without having to shout it from the rooftops or throw themselves at a pack of wolves. If anyone pounced, so what? I'd be ready and hit 'em back with the truth. Cosby has one of the best cut-throat lawyers alive and he's no shrinking violet himself.

People wanna believe Cosby. People wanna believe these women are lying (read this thread). The only reason a PR person would advise Cosby to be silent is because he's guilty.

A PR person who told him to clam up and hide if we was innocent -- when Cosby is still vital and still very concerned about image and legacy -- should not be a PR person but rather an undertaker.

As I said, you can't prove a negative. He can't prove these women are lying (if, suppose they were) any more than they can prove he's a liar. It's a he-said, she-said situation and the only ones who have credence right now are those accusing him (because they're a group who have similar stories). I don't think he could rightly accuse them of extortion (for sure) and defamation...who in their right mind would challenge that large of a group of women?

He'd be an idiot to come forward and try to fight that battle. Sorry HotD, but the story is dying already because he's not feeding the media frenzy. It will continue to die. He may lose jobs, endorsements etc. and his legacy will always be tarnished because of this but speaking out about it? It would only make things worse.
