Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt.
Twitter continues going in.
Any bets on #CosbyApologists becoming a trending hashtag?
While we’re talking legacies…
These Cosby Show screenshots though.
Shots fired from atop the moral high horse.
Say it with your Claire Huxtable voice.
Tell ‘em how you really feel Judd.
