re: Why is Bill Cosby doing ANY interviews?

but every rape accusation has about a 5% chance of being true- based on my experience with the news and in real life

lol

1) that number is hilariously lowballing
2) even if true, 5% chance of each claim being true, with 14 claimants and counting, means he has at least a 52% chance of raping someone

if we took a still hilarious lowball and say that 40% of the claims are true (taking 50% he-said-she-said and giving him the benefit of the doubt as a powerful, wealthy man who would be targeted by false claimants), there is a 99.98% chance he raped at least one woman and he's most likely to have raped 5-6

sorry but you don't get 14 separate claims against you and have none of them be true. i'm typically pretty skeptical in these situations but this is a no-brainer
