*Judd Apatow is not letting Eddie Griffin‘s theory on “systematic efforts” to tarnish black men in entertainment stand when it comes to Bill Cosby.
According to media sources, Apatow took to social media to express that people are manipulating the truth in an effort to defend the embattled comedian.
“It hurts when an icon betrays all who loved him. That’s why people look for conspiracies. The truth is too awful.,” Apatow tweeted.
Apatow’s comments come after VladTV recently posted a video of an interview with Griffin which generated attention after Cosby was charged last week with aggravated indecent assault for alleged an alleged sexual that took place in 2004. In the interview, Griffin mentioned that Cosby’s situation is reflective of the plight of many black male celebrities in the entertainment industry.
“There is a systematic effort to destroy every Black male entertainer’s image,” the funnyman told DJ Vlad. “They want all of us to have an asterisk by our name.”
“Nobody leaves this business clean,” Griffin stated when touching on cases of other black male celebrities. “You’re not going to die clean.”
After Cosby posted $1 million bail for his release on Dec. 30, Apatow went on Twitter to voice his desire for justice for the women who are accusing Cosby of drugging and raping them.
“Bill Cosby has spent his life attempting to silence the women he has assaulted with threats, lawsuits and money,” Apatow tweeted. “Hopefully now many of these women will get to tell their stories in a court of law and the people who supported him will get deposed.”

This guy needs to find a new hobby.
This Guy speaks the truth about Cosby.
This guy sticks up for his jewish rapist buddies he is what we call a hypocrite. Allen, Polanski, Dunham to name just a few.
Teresa, if that’s the case then shame on him!! I wasn’t aware of that. Any man, I don’t give a sh*t about color or religion, who rapes or sexually assaults women or girls, needs to go to jail. End of story. There is bias based on color and that’s wrong. IMO Cosby is guilty and needs to go to jail. And so do the other sickos you mentioned.
