Bill Cosby rape accusations grow

A defense of Cosby requires that one believe that several women have decided to publicly accuse one of the most powerful men in recent Hollywood history of a crime they have no hope of seeing prosecuted, and for which they are seeking no damages.

The Atlantic’s Ta-Nehisi Coates does the math (15 women have now accused Bill Cosby) and some journalistic soul-searching: The Cosby Show.

+ Netflix has “postponed” a Cosby stand-up show scheduled for later this month. (Ya think?)

+ Cosby’s old routine about wanting to drug women’s drinks.
