Bill Cosby Says "People Should Fact Check"

OK?

Bill Cosby has been conspicuously silent about all the sexual assault allegations over the past month (you know, other than shaking his head at Scott Simon and trying to pressure an AP reporter), though his lawyer has made the expected denial statements and sent at least one threatening letter to BuzzFeed.

He did a standup show last night at a college campus in Florida, despite a local radio station calling for hecklers to confront him about the accusations. Nothing happened—Cosby got two standing ovations—but the venue was apparently worried enough to make a statement before the show. Cosby also gave an interview to Florida Today about the situation.

"I know people are tired of me not saying anything. But a guy doesn't have to answer to innuendos. People should fact check. People shouldn't have to go through that and shouldn't answer to innuendos," he said. That's not really a denial. You can find the full list of accusations here.
