michael eric dyson, msnbc political analyst and georgetown university professor joining us exclusivelyw." doctor, there's no doubt that bill cosby apparently has some expectations of the black media in america. what are your thoughts on that, that he would in a sense call out and expect something of the black media, at least that's the way i took it. >> let me defend mr. cosby first. he said that he was told that he was being called specifically from a black media outlet, so it would make sense that he would say, look, this is what i expect of the black media. i can understand he would then go on to say, this is what i want the black media to do. so let me defend him on that premise. however, beyond that, i think the black media has failed miserably in the past. let me point the finger at all of the journalists who for the last ten years when mr. cosby was engaging and i think very unfair, unprincipled, vicious assaults on black people, especially black women, they came to his defense, calling it organic conservative belief within black america. columnists saying he was finally telling
