Sarah Silverman Clarifies Bill Cosby Rape Joke
Celebrity

The 'A Million Ways to Die in the West' actress is accused of making light of the victims' pain with her initial joke about Cosby rape scandal.

AceShowbiz - Sarah Silverman sets the record straight on the joke she made about Bill Cosby rape scandal on Twitter. The stand-up comedienne makes a revision to her earlier joke after getting mixed reactions from her online followers.

"Bill Cosby gave me one of those 'don't be dirty' lectures but I was unconscious & he was talking about my a-hole," she initially tweeted. "Too soon," one commented, while another replied, "Your joke makes light of women's actual pain. Not OK."

In a more favorable comment, a fan explained, "Obviously her joke is about the hypocrisy of Cosby being a rapist while always giving comedians sh*t about 'working clean.' "

Silverman herself was quick to clarify. "If I could rewrite my last tweet I'd edit it thus," she posted, before adding, "Bill Cosby gave me one of those 'don't be dirty' lectures but I was rendered unconscious."
