Cosby loses fans after documents unsealed
As a chorus of sexual assault accusations against Bill Cosby resounded this winter, some fans and famous friends stood by him, calling the allegations unproven attacks on a comedy legend.
But for some, the breaking point came this week, when newly unsealed court documents revealed that the comedian had admitted to giving at least one woman quaaludes before sex - the kind of behavior long suspected by women who have accused him of drugging and abusing them.
"Completely disgusted," tweeted singer Jill Scott, who had vociferously defended her mentor. The Bounce TV and Centric networks stopped rerunning The Cosby Show, apparently booting the 1980s comedy classic completely off TV. Some fans who went to his recent performances, even as the allegations swirled, said they won't go again.
