Bill Cosby Says the “Mainstream Media Are the Insurrectionists”
Despite only recently having his sexual assault conviction overturned due to a procedural technicality, Bill Cosby is wasting no time making batshit public statements again. While defending his former on-screen wife, Phylicia Rashad, after she was reprimanded for celebrating his release from prison, Cosby took things to a weird place by blaming the mainstream media for the January 6th insurrection. Upon Cosby’s release after serving two years of a potential 10 year sentence, Rashad tweeted, “FINALLY!!!! A terrible wrong is being righted — a miscarriage of justice is corrected!” Previously known as Clair Huxtable on The Cosby Show, Rashad is now a dean at Howard University, and her current employer wasn’t thrilled with her applauding a man formerly labeled a sexually violent predator. ...
OG Aunt Viv Actress Janet Hubert Slams Phylicia Rashad For Caping For Pill Cosby
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Patricia Schlein/Star Max / Getty The OG Aunt Viv is showing more sense than Claire Huxtable nowadays. Actress Janet Hubert took to Twitter to slam the gleeful praise Phylicia Rashad heaped on Bill Cosby after the disgraced comedian was released on a technicality.

Phylicia Rashad couldn’t help herself and celebrated Cosby being sprung with a wild, and since deleted tweet. “FINALLY!!!! A terrible wrong is being righted- a miscarriage of justice is corrected!” she tweeted along with a photo of the 83-yea...

The 25 Most Anticipated Movies of Fall 2020
“New year, new decade, new films, right?” That was January, back when we were still looking ahead at 2020 with blind optimism and ill-fated excitement. Sigh, hindsight is 20/20 they say, right? Who knew. At the time, we had 50 exciting new titles we were anticipating, most of which have since been either postponed, dumped to VOD, or relegated to a limbo state. It’s been an unnerving year for the film industry, to say the least. A year fraught with shutdowns, furloughs, layoffs, bankruptcies, and re-evaluations. All of that change has prompted a seismic shift in how everything’s run across the media landscape, and no one truly has a grip on things just yet. Odds are they won’t for quite some time. Because of this, anticipating anything right now — let alone anything in pop culture — seems l...
