Bill Cosby Avoids Rape Questions In AP Interview

Bill Cosby Refuses To Discuss Rape Allegations

Bill Cosby refused to answer questions about the rape allegations against him in a recently released interview with The Associated Press.

Cosby and his wife Camille sat down with an AP reporter who questioned him about the accusations, to which Cosby responded “No, no we don’t answer that.”

The interviewer persisted on the topic and Cosby again made it clear, he would not touch on the issue. “There is no comment,” he said. “I think you were told…I don’t want to compromise your integrity, but I don’t talk about it,” he added.

Cosby eventually asked if the clip could be edited out of the interview. “Can I get something from you, that none of that would be shown.” He added: “I would appreciate it if that was scuttled.”

A day after Janice Dickinson came out and claimed Cosby drugged and raped her, it was announced that NBC dropped their Cosby production and TV Land cancelled reruns of “The Cosby Show.”

While Bill Cosby is sticking to the silent treatment, friends of the “Cosby Show” star are speaking on his behalf. Stacey Dash tweeted,

Well thanks Stacey, we were having such a hard time coping with this and you really put things in perspective.
