…NPR’s host, Scott Simon, said to 77 year-old Cos:
“This question gives me no pleasure, Mr. Cosby, but there have been serious allegations raised about you in recent days…”
He drilled: “You’re shaking your head no. I’m in the news business. I have to ask the question. Do you have any response to those charges?”
Cosby continued to shake his head [‘no’] and remaining mum (having been put on the spot).
The NPR interviewer continued: “There are people who love you who might like to hear from you about this.”
Cosby still ignored him.
Scott Simon continued “I want to give you the chance.”
Welp.
My hope is that the names and accomplishments of these artists are not lost to history – http://t.co/Th3ScCWUmZ #Conversations

I’m thinking…the Cos should give up trying to promote his comedy show [or fighting for the preservation of African Art] altogether if he thinks that anyone’s just going to let him promote his agenda without stepping up to the plate about such serious allegations.
He’s got to get “Dr. Huxtable” out of his head of presumptuousness.
Right now, he’s just: “Bill Cosby.”
And Bill Cosby: give up the ghost, ole’ dude. Speak.
You can run but..you can’t hide.
P.S.
There’s a message in that…
