Now all of this bullshit with shedding the light on sexual harasment with Harvey Weinstein, Ben Afleck, Ben Frankel, and the others why are they doing this; because they pulled this same stunt trying to incarcerate Bill Cosby and it didn't work. No one believed those bogus claims against Cosby and they couldn't get a conviction. Now they didn't drop the case, they just set it up so they could drag Cosby into court at a later date and this time get him convicted. Now I never dreamed that they'd dream up such a convoluted plot to convict one man, and this lets you know that the people out to get the Cos'' have some heavy juice. They are working on creating an environment where people who believe in his innocence will be afraid to stand up for him because they're afraid that some of this will rub off on them. Whoever thise people are wield waaaay too much fuckin' influence and power to the degree that they can use it on one man. When the Lord sets up the new king, I can assure you there is nowhere you can run and be safe cos the king has already decided that the world will be a better place for all concerned if you were not here because this is ridiculous. Your gonna' go to such extents and extremes to persecute one man! Corrupt isn't even the word for it! You're gonna use invaluable resoursces, pull other people in on this scheme just to persecute ONE MAN?!! ARE YOU INSANE?!! And just watch, none of these white men they've put on front street will be taken to court nor see a day in jail. And most stupid people out there will say when they do what they're plannin to do anyway which is put Cosby in jail,'well somebody needed to pay.' And all these wite women who thought this was their chanc e to get revenge one by one they will be taking them down. Then theat same old bullshit argument 'they wouldn't go through all this trouble for that.' An old whiteboy lie to try and hide the fact that yes they would. The irony behind this is that the accusations against these white boys is true. Those women accusing Cosbv\were lying. Black people continue to support Cosb y and don't believe a single word that comes out of their white fuckin' mouths. The time has come for war. We pray God will continue to pritect Cosby from these evil men.
I see now how they're trying to throw Bill Cosby in on the sly with these 'guilty' white men who they ARE NOT TRYING TO THROW INTO JAIL!!! You see they wanna lump Bill Cosby in with these white men wha are not gonna have trouble with the law, and basically showing their true hand. We especially African Americans need to notice how they are using all these diversionary tactics and spending all this money getting all of these white men to take a 'fall' TEMPORARILY until they are able to RAILROAD DR. COSBY into a prison sentence!!! That is what all THIS BULLSHIT is about! They plan on draggin Cosby back into court next year and they want hte public PRIMED AND READY to throw this man in jail! NONE OF THESE WHITE MEN WILL SEE THE INSIDE OF A COURTROOM BUT THEY WANT YOU READY TO THOW MR COSBY INTO JAIL! YES THEY WILL GO THROUGH ALL THIS FOR THIS FUCKED UP WHACK PURPOSE! GOD CURSE THESE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF satan and let the truth imprison them rather than a innocent man! Cosby don't be deceived by thiese others who are admitting THEIR GUILT! They're trying to fool you so you'll admit to a consentual relationship so they can twist it into something else. Now they're pulling other Blacks into this bullshit but have agreed obviously not to prosecute them. Now something that happened ten and twenty years ago, this is some bullshit. Whatever reason they had for not coming forward sooner as far as we're concerned NOTHING HAPPENED! You don't wait ten twenty or even two to three years to out of nowhere coming forward. As far as we're concerned, NOTHING HAPPENED!!!

Charlie Rose fired by CBS over sexual harassment allegations
Charlie Rose’s CBS News career came to an unceremonious end Tuesday when the network fired him over allegations of sexual harassment.
Rose’s departure marks the downfall of one of television’s most venerable journalists and a major blow to CBS News, which enjoyed its greatest success ever in the morning thanks to “CBS This Morning,” which was built around Rose and his co-anchors Gayle King and Norah O’Donnell in 2012.
Rose’s serious demeanor and ability to engage a wide range of personalities in politics, the arts and business earned him respect and global recognition. He frequently jetted off to land interviews with world leaders.
“There is not a single person of note on the planet who does not know who he is,” said one CBS News executive who spoke on the condition of anonymity. “His talent was so in the stratosphere.”
CBS had moved quickly on Monday to suspend Rose, 75, after the Washington Post reported Monday that eight women said they were subjected to inappropriate behavior while working with him. The story said Rose made unwanted sexual advances, appeared nude in their presence or groped them. His PBS talk show was also halted and there was no immediate update on the long-term status of the program.
Rose posted a statement on Twitter apologizing for his “inappropriate behavior.”
“I am greatly embarrassed. I have behaved insensitively at times, and I accept responsibility for that, though I do not believe that all of these allegations are accurate,” he said. “I always felt that I pursued shared feelings though I now realize that I was mistaken.”
On the Tuesday morning “CBS This Morning” broadcast, King and Donnell weighed in about their colleague.
“There is no excuse for this alleged behavior,” O’Donnell said. “It is systematic and pervasive, and I've been doing a lot of listening and I'm going to continue to do that. This I know is true: Women cannot achieve equality in the workplace or in society until there is a reckoning and a taking of responsibility.”
King said she was “reeling” from the revelations about Rose and got little sleep before Tuesday’s episode of the show.
“We are all rocked by this,” King said. “And I — I want to echo what Norah said. I really applaud the women that speak up despite the friendship. He doesn't get a pass because I can't stop thinking about the anguish of these women, what happened to their dignity, what happened to their bodies, what happened maybe to even their careers.”
For CBS, a change to the lineup around the glass roundtable at its studioin Manhattan presents a challenge for what has become a profitable bright spot for its news division.
Rose’s presence on “CBS This Morning” signified a commitment to serious news, which has been a major factor in the program’s ratings growth in recent years.
“CBS This Morning” has run in third place behind ABC’s “Good Morning America” and NBC’s “Today.” But since 2012, the CBS program has added viewers while ABC and NBC have seen significant declines.
King, a longtime TV personality best known for her close friendship with Oprah Winfrey, has emerged as a network news star on the program. But Rose was seen as giving the show its creditability as a smarter alternative for morning viewers.
CBS did not name a replacement for Rose on “CBS This Morning.” A number of CBS News personalities are expected to fill his chair until a permanent co-anchor is named.
