Whoopi Goldberg Backs Bill Cosby: ‘Save Your Texts, Save Your Nasty Comments–I Don’t Care’ (Video)

“This is my opinion and in America, still–I know it’s a shock–but you actually were innocent until proven guilty; he has not been proven a rapist,” The View co-host says

Whoopi Goldberg continued to suggest Bill Cosby is innocent until proven guilty Tuesday even after revelations he got prescription Quaaludes to give to women to have sex with him.

“We’ll see what happens as more information comes out, people will make judgments,”Goldberg said. “I don’t like snap judgments because I’ve had snap judgments made on me, so I’m very very careful…save your texts, save your nasty comments — I don’t care.”

Goldberg continued that in America, someone is innocent until proven guilty.

“This is my opinion and in America, still — I know it’s a shock — but you actually were innocent until proven guilty; he has not been proven a rapist.”

Fellow panelist Raven-Symone, who played Cosby’s step-granddaughter on “The Cosby Show,” acknowledged she doesn’t like addressing the subject since Cosby gave her her start, adding she needs the proof before giving her judgment.

Guest co-host Michelle Collins’ joked that if anyone needs a Benadryl — just ask Cosby for one. The joke fell flat, making her co-hosts cringe.
