Exclamation Raven-Symone Slams Story that Bill Cosby Sexually Assaulted Her

Raven-Symone Slams Story Claiming Bill Cosby Assaulted Her
11/19/14
by Aaron Couch



Raven-Symone is speaking out against a story that ran on a parody news site claiming Bill Cosby molested her when she was a child actress on "The Cosby Show".

The parody news site Hip Hop Hangover ran a story this week stating Symone had filed molestation charges against Cosby.



"I was NOT taking advantage of by Mr. Cosby when I was on the Cosby Show," Symone wrote on her Instagram account Wednesday. "I was practically a baby on that show and this is truly a disgusting rumor that I want no part of! Everyone on that show treated me with nothing but kindness. Now keep me out of this!"

Symone, 28, played Olivia from 1989-1992 on "The Cosby Show".



Cosby is facing resurfaced allegations of sexual assault, which have prompted NBC to scrap a planned series, Netflix to "postpone" a comedy special, and TV Land to pull repeats of "The Cosby Show".

Cosby has denied the allegations through statements from his reps and attorneys. The most recent allegation came Tuesday from former supermodel Janice Dickinson, who alleged Cosby raped her in 1982.

So, why haven't Bill Cosby's co-stars / celebrity friends publicly defended him?

I will propose an answer to the question raised in that thread. Cosby's co-stars spent long days with him for eight years. During that time they more than likely saw that he was a womanizer, and probably observed some other bad behavior on the set. So they're not in a position to say he's a great guy like Cliff Huxtable. They probably recognize that saying anything at all will do more harm than good to their own financial position because the second they open their mouths, they're opening themselves up to questions they don't want to answer, because the answers to those questions, in the end, won't help win fans back to watching The Cosby Show (could scare them away), thus hurting the big income (residuals) they've been enjoying from reruns over the last two decades.

Cold fact take, but, unfortunately, quite likely.
