Watch Amy Schumer Defend Bill Cosby in the Court of Public Approval
Comedian Amy Schumer put the numerous rape allegations against Bill Cosby into perspective in a blistering takedown sketch on her show Inside Amy Schumer. In the sketch, Schumer defends Cosby in the court of public opinion and faces off against a prosecutor armed with mounds of facts and witness statements. Evidence aside, Schumer wins the support of the judge and jury with distractions like cake and free sweaters. At the end of the day, she argues jokingly, the public should ignore the Cosby allegations because they don't feel good. "If convicted, the next time you put on a rerun of The Cosby Show you may wince a little, you might feel a little pang," she says. "We don't deserve to feel that pang. We deserve to dance like no one's watching and watch like no one's raping.",
