"the national enquirer" more than any other publication was unflinching in our aggressive coverage of allegations against mr. cosby beginning in 2000 when everyone else avoided the story. but all of the stories and the recent decision by cosby to leave the board of trustees of his beloved temple university has many suggesting it is past time for cosby himself to address this scandal. jean casarez, cnn, new york. >> joining me now, scott simon, host of npr's "weekend edition" saturday he interviewed cosby just last month. you played a role in this renewed conversation. you had him on your radio show to talk to him about your art co

look at the face of bill cosby.is that to have him continue to say that he did not do any of these things to us? why in the world would i lie? i passed a lie detector test, mr. cosby. he used my lie detector test and my photos in order to have my story stocked. he was the most afraid of me. that was in a commotion just released from the philadelphia piece where the settlement was done. >> that are is different than a threat against your life. i want to be clear. >> just understand, sir, that the day i met mr. doz we was the day he began to medal in my life and take everything from me. what he has done to so many other victims and he takes you on and becomes your mentor and father figure and becomes your life coach. he manipulates you all the time and all those things that my father warned me about with models, he was doing that to us and to me personally. once i became involved with him, he did not want to let go of me. i became his possession and even though i was married at the time and he is too, it didn't matter

about bringing down cosby, it's about empowering other victims of abuse. >> this is bigger than bill cosbyut women and violence on women. this is -- this is about women finding their voice. i feel that cosby took my power that evening and that i took my power back. >> bill cosby has denied all sexual assault allegations. here's my take. ten years ago i wrote a book "is bill cosby right or has the black middle class lost his mind?" i criticized him for the attacks on the black poor, especially young black women for what he viewed as their lax morals and poor parenting skills. five, six children, same woman. eight, ten different husbands or whatever. pretty soon you're going to have to have dna cards so you can tell who you're making love to. you don't know who this is. might be your grandmother. my god. a took a lot of heat from black america for my book, as many black folk defended his views as organic conservatism and nothing more than you'd hear from your uncle or things you'd pick up at the local barbershop. well, there's a good reason your uncle isn't on television offing analysis and

you thought you knew is the real bill cosby. that is who he is. now it seems to mow that the statement leaves open the possibility that there is another bill cosby, that there is a bill cosby she didn't see, and that seems to me to be a kind of reality that can exist out there in relationships, particularly in marriages where the guy is a certain way as a husband and father and at home and as a provider and all that, but has some secrets, and that is, that is not a person who a wife would know in this situation. >> yes. i would agree with that. but i think the timing of her statement is significant. we had, bill cosby's an icon, no question about it. we had another icon come out last week in the person of beverly johnson to make her statement. and then in her statement, in her story, vanity fair, she names camille cosby in accounts, calling her the night after she was allegedly drugged. so i think that camille cosby coming out in defense of her husband, i wouldn't doubt is in somewhat relation to that, because she was mentioned

she wrote a piece in vani"vanit fair" said bill cosby invited her to audition for a part in the bill y show in the 1980s, she said invited her to his home and he drugged her. when she started to fight back, he dragged her out of the house into a taxi. is her story the tipping point as we approach two dozen women who have now made allegations against bill cosby? we're joined by larry hackett, the former managing editor of "people" magazine. is the story coming from beverly johnson someone who is so famous, different? >> it's interesting. some of the story is very, very similar. the come to the home, audition for, you can audition for me, i'll be a mentor and the drugging, very similar. but this is someone that people know. so i think there are many, many people who thought when they first read the allegations, when it was a dozen people or two dozen people. these are women trying to extort him. these are old stories. this is completely different. you come to this with the idea of why would beverly johnson make this up? >> one of the things that's also different is that she said she was

beverly, what do you want to see happen to bill cosby? >> i -- i don't want to see anything happen to bill cosby. what i want to see happen is that women come out and speak their truths. >> beverly johnson, the first avenue can american woman on the cover of the u.s. edition of "vogue", the does her getting into this take it to another level? >> i don't know if it takes it to a different level. it was a pretty high level to begin with. i think what she does is -- i don't know, i assume you've actually read her piece in vandy fair. it was insightful. sometimes when people say, like, as survivor of sexual assault, what do you want to have happen to the person that did this to you, that's not the responsibility of the perpendicular who is the victim. the responsibility of the victim is to come out and tell the truth. we have a justice system that is going to come out and determine what happens. to talk about it, to come out and speak her truth, that is a brave thing and very noble. i have a lot of admiration for her. >> right. and there's be

patrick o'connor has served on the temple board of trustees for bill cosby for decades. he represented the comedian against accusations of sexual assault in 2005 but more than anything, he calls cosby a friend. he said yesterday cosby called him and said he was resigning from the board. >> it was painful. it what's motional. it was brief. >> reporter: o'connor says the board was already considering its next move but it was content to take its time and deliberate all of the facts. that is when cosby stepped in and took the decision out of the board's hands. >> as he said to me, my issues are becoming a distraction to temple university. i love temple. i don't want temple to be harmed by my personal issues. >> reporter: o'connor says he understands the anger towards cosby but like the lawyer he is, he calls him just accusations. >> question his character more and more. >> no, i know bill, i don't question his character at all, but these are his personal issues that he has to deal with him. >> reporter: o'connor would not talk about specific allegations against cosby. he a sa

did to her. >> what do you want from bill cosby right now? what do you need to hear from him? what does he need to do? >> i would like cosby to come out and at least acknowledge -- >> cosby's attorney is firing back calling dickinson a liar. more next. people with type 2 diabetes come from all walks of life. if you have high blood sugar, ask your doctor about farxiga. it's a different kind of medicine that works by removing some sugar from your body. along with diet and exercise, farxiga helps lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. with one pill a day, farxiga helps lower your a1c. and, although it's not a weight-loss or blood-pressure drug, farxiga may help you lose weight and may even lower blood pressure when used with certain diabetes medicines. do not take if allergic to farxiga or its ingredients. symptoms of a serious allergic reaction include rash, swelling or difficulty breathing or swallowing. if you have any of these symptoms, stop taking farxiga and seek medical help right away. do not take farxiga if you have severe kid

so i wouldn't expect her as the wife of bill cosby to say much else.d the statement really get into it i think there's no admission or denial that these allegations are true or false but merely a statement by her saying that, you know, she thinks her husband is being treated unfairly. >> mel, you like mo are a lawyer. should she have said somewhere in that note or how would it will v changed things if she said "he didn't do this, he didn't do any of this"? >> john, good morning. good morning, mo. it's an excellent question. i think this is a very benign statement and from a legal standpoint there's no allegation that she was a witness or had any knowledge to the allegations that bill cosby raped over 20 women. so her opinion about the entire thing as far as i'm concerned is immaterial from a legal standpoint. what i find fascinating, john, and i'm sure everybody at home is kind of thinking the same thing, and this is what would make a wife actually want to say something at all? and so i've taken a step back and i've thought, okay, this reminds me a lit

it's about empowering other victims of abuse. >> this is bigger than bill cosby. this is about, you know, women and violence on women. this is -- this is about women finding their voice. i feel that cosby took my power that evening and that i took my power back. >> wow. that was msnbc's tamar a. n hall. we'll talk to senior editor at ebony.com about how some say this gives growing credibility to the women who have come forward. >>> things are going back to -- glitch essentially caused the entire london air space to shut down. only allowing for emergency landings. the systems have now been restored. >>> even with the senate all but certain to pass the trillion dollar funding bill known in d.c. speak as the cromnibus, there's a battle brewing in washington for the sole of the democratic party with intriguing alliances. we'll talk with one of the lawmakers pushing back against the white house. >>> plus, more on the new cosby accusation and whether it could be the final straw that brings down his iconic empire. >>> first, a reid alert. new fears today of massive mudsli

bill monster cosby. >> how much has hearing from the other women who alleged sexual assault by bill cosbyhas that assisted you? how much does that also help you in recalling in detail what happened to you in 1982? >> i remember the memory and being robbed of my innocence and i believe the women that i have not been in contact with. i believe their story because it was the exact same thing ha happened to me. as an individual woman, i am the world's first super model and this took place in 1982 and it took place in a hotel room in lake tahoe and he was wearing a bathrobe and a velvet hat and a gold watch. i didn't do the right thing. i didn't report it or go to rape counseling and you know what? i was afraid. but i'm not afraid any more. i'm now strong and i have support and i will go on with my story until my last breath. >> whone of the most recent accusers -- >> i don't like that word. >> why is that? >> i am not an accuser. why am i the bad person that got raped? >> if he chooses to speak on his own and he has after an appearance and i do have a portion of what he said. he said i know p
