Manufacturing Dissent Since 1996
New interviews throughout the week

Bill Cosby and the riskiest comedy.

Oh, he was on his high horse. "You young comedians, if you have to say four-letter words to get laughs, you're just not – that's a crutch, profanity." And then he's lecturing the younger people, "you know what your problem is? You wear your pants so your whole underwear shows. It's disrespectful." No one ever got to say, Oh, yeah, old Bill Cosby, well, you know what your problem is? You give women sedatives without their knowing it, and when they fall asleep, you rape them.

In a [CONTENT ADVISORY] and [OPINIONS EXPRESSED DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THE VIEWS OF THIS IS HELL®] Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen visits Bill Cosby in prison, or visits prison upon Bill Cosby. Did you read that all caps part about the disclaimers in the last sentence? Just want to make sure we're on the same page here.
