Bill Cosby Responds To Rape Allegations

Bill Cosby finally responds to recent allegations that he drugged and raped several women.  Please watch video release.
With his wife Camille by his side, the actor seems uncomfortable, and very irritated, when the question is asked of him.
The previously unreleased interview was filmed back on November 6.
'There is no comment about that. And I’ll tell you why. I don’t want to compromise your integrity, but I don’t talk about it.' 
 
His publicist then get extremely irritated that the question was even asked, and Cosby himself demands that it not be put in with the video.
'I would appreciate it if it was scuttled,' says the actor.
The AP has revealed they did not release the video at the time, which was meant to be about the Cosbys loaning 50 artworks to the Smithsonian, as they were just asking him based on claims that Hannibal Buress had made, the standup comedian whose acknowledgement of Cosby's past troubles with women claiming he sexually assaulted them brought up the subject again.  
 
This is the most Cosby has said on the subject since three women came forward recently saying that the actor drugged and raped them.
Barbara Bowman, Joan Tarshis, and supermodel Janice Dickinson have all told similar stories of being given pills and then sexually assaulted by Cosby. 
Bowman and Tarshis were both teenagers when the incidents with Cosby occurred.
Meanwhile, Cosby's lawyer, Martin Singer, called Dickinson's allegations 'false and outlandish,' adding that the former model was 'seeking publicity to bolster her fading career.' 
 
Cosby, who has never been convicted on any of these charges, did settle a civil suit with a woman in 2006 who accused him of drugging and raping her two years earlier in his Philadelphia mansion.  
These allegations are already having a major impact on his work however, with Netflix postponing the airing of his new comedy special, Bill Cosby 77, which was due to air the day after Thanksgiving, and NBC pulling the plug on a comedy project they were developing with the Cosby Show star.
 
Cosby has also had scheduled appearances on talk shows including The Queen Latifah Show and Late Night With David Letterman cancelled in the wake of these allegations.
