    This is ballsy. I can't think of any other celebrity who has called Cosby out. All of the late night shows, including The Daily Show, had him on one or more times over the last two years. It's like the comedians feel some sort of weird allegiance to ignore and gloss this stuff over.

      They all fawn over "Mr. Cosby." Fuck him. He's not even good television anymore. He's just an old curmudgeon who doesn't understand social cues.

      He also called Obama a "half-black, so-so" president. Hannibal may be my favorite comedian working right now.

    I wonder why Dr. Dre never gets scrutiny for almost beating a woman to death.

      With rappers it's kind of expected as a part of the lifestyle, even if they turn into successful business moguls (see also Suge Knight). Cosby's public persona is an avuncular, cuddly solid citizen so the accusations of rape are more jarring.

      Eminem called him out on it, and he at least acknowledged it.

    Good. It's nice to see someone call that asshole out. He's a smug prick that loves telling people how to live but refuses to allow any close looks at how he himself is living.

    I also hate his bullshit doctorate of education. He barely attended classes and his research was about using Fat Albert as an educational tool. One of his professors resigned from the university in protest, saying that the school basically handed him a doctorate and that the final oral exam was basically Bill and the profs drinking brandy while he told them stories about the entertainment business. Fuck Bill Cosby.

      He is extremely unlikeable and his smug attitude is palpable. And I don't understand why these late night show hosts still have him on because he's such a narcissist. He completely takes over the show and makes it weird.

      I didn't know that. I've never liked him and literally the only good thing I thought he ever did was got back to school after becoming famous. Guess there really is nothing about him to like.

    He delivered this joke so much better and went way deeper in Detroit a few weeks ago.

    My favorite bit was, "So am I not supposed to laugh at a Theo joke because the pudding rapist set it up?"

      Pudding rapist? Goddamn, Hannibal Buress can turn a phrase. Now I know what I'll be calling Bill Cosby for the rest of my life.

      Welp, there's "pudding rapist" added to my vernacular. The things you don't know will happen when you wake up in the morning.

    Buress can't even carry Bill shoes. He's not funny, and he's only on stage because people like Cosby and Pryor paved the way. Did they have problems? Of course, but this guys punching up at Zeus. Sadly Bill won't be around much longer, but let's burn the old man in effigy so we can all feel superior to an Icon.

      Just because someone is an "icon", it doesn't mean they shouldn't be called out for the shitty things they do. Age isn't an excuse, either.

      If it wasn't for Bill Cosby blazing a trail for him, Hannibal Buress wouldn't even be on stage talking about his raping ass.

    Some people hate Bill Cosby because he actually has the balls to speak out to his own community on ways to improve themselves. This goes against the whole "blame whitey for everything" attitude some people have. And I love how some people on here want to claim how shitty the Cosby Show was. That show did more to help the black community than probably any other. It helped to destroy alot of stereotypes.

      The fact that you think he's the only one in the black community calling people out to "improve themselves" says a lot about you.

      The Cosby show did not "fix" the "black community" (hate that term) and the show did not destroy stereotypes. People to this day still view black people as a whole in negative ways despite the many instances of us proving that we're no more inferior than any other race, and Cosby's solutions to helping black people in this country were bullshit.

    A childhood friend's mother was a makeup artist and we would ask her questions about the famous people she worked with. She would always mention what an f'ing creep Bill Cosby was and how all the women hated working with him

      I have heard this, too. He has a very aggressive team that has been able to silence these allegations throughout the years.

      Cosby's pretty litigious. He sued to try to get "House of Cosbys" off the Internet, so I wonder what he's gonna do here.

      Buress is so goddamn funny on Broad City and is even funnier live. I'm not saying that Dave Chapelle was jealous of how successful Buress's set was at the Oddball Comedy fest, but I'm saying he should have been.
