A look back at Cosby's rightwing defenders, smearing accusers and making Bill out to be the victim
Starting our list is Jabba the Rush:
first downplaying the allegations:
"Limbaugh Hits CNN for Cosby Rape Coverage: ‘It’s Not Like He Did It Yesterday’"
http://www.mediaite.com/online/limbaugh-hits-cnn-for-cosby-rape-coverage-its-not-like-he-did-it-yesterday/
and then portraying Cosby as a victim of a lib'rul media conspiracy:
"Rush Limbaugh: CNN Reporting On Bill Cosby Rape Allegations Because Cosby Told Blacks To Step Up"
http://mediamatters.org/video/2014/11/14/rush-cnn-reporting-on-bill-cosby-rape-allegatio/201578
- and then there was Glenn Beck, also expressing his sympathy for Bill:
"Beck: AP raped Bill Cosby!"
http://www.mediaite.com/online/glenn-beck-ap-raped-bill-cosby/
- and, most disgustingly, there was Tucker Carlson....
....whose website the Daily Caller became Cosby Defense Central, running pieces trying to smear Bill's victims, like the following:
"Histories Of Several Cosby Accusers Cast Doubt On Tales
http://dailycaller.com/2014/12/12/histories-of-several-cosby-accusers-cast-doubt-on-tales/
"EXCLUSIVE: Cosby Accuser’s Manager Claims Beverly Johnson And Janice Dickinson LIED"
http://dailycaller.com/2015/01/11/exclusive-cosby-accusers-manager-claims-beverly-johnson-and-janice-dickinson-lied/
(both were written by Patrick Howley, who has a history of hating women: http://mediamatters.org/blog/2014/03/20/meet-patrick-howley-the-daily-callers-resident/198545)
I'm sure all these guys will admit they were wrong and apologize to Cosby's victims, right?
