WATCH: Bill Cosby’s Baffling Response to Rape Allegations


Bill Cosby was on Good Morning America today to promote his charity work with the Black Belt Foundation, an organization that works to fund underserved schools in the South. In a move we haven’t seen on TV, the reporter questioned him about the numerous rape allegations against him.

“If a young person comes up to you and says, ‘My mom says you’ve done some bad things,’ how will you answer? … Are the allegations true?” she asks. What came next was the kind of bizarre Bill Cosby appearance we’ve come to expect from his talk-show gigs. Except this time, it’s not quite so funny. His response:

“I am prepared to tell this young person about life … I’m not sure that they will come like that. I think that many of them say, ‘Well you’re a hypocrite, you say one thing, you say the other.’ My point is, ‘OK, listen to me carefully: I’m telling you where the road is out. I’m telling you where, as you’re driving you’re going to go into water and it looks like it might only be three inches deep, but you and your car are going to go down. Now, you want to go here or you want to be concerned about who’s giving you the message?’”
