While Whoopi Goldberg has stood by Bill Cosby, filmmaker Judd Apatow is going after The View co-host. Apatow has been vocal on Twitter about the Cosby controversy and has not stopped in the wake of the release of a 2005 deposition in which Cosby admitted to giving women Quaaludes for sex.
Back on Monday, when the testimony came out, Apatow told Esquire that Cosby’s wife Camille and Cosby Show star Phylicia Rashad should stop supporting him. Now, the Trainwreck director thinks that Goldberg should stop supporting Cosby as well.
“I think @WhoopiGoldberg is trying to be a loyal friend. It is sad that Bill Cosby is so sick that he puts his friends in that position,” Apatow wrote. In his next tweet, he attached an advertisement for Quaaludes and wrote, “but @WhoopiGoldberg - he admitted to giving this to women to get them to have sex. So what are you defending?”
On The View Tuesday, Goldberg said that Cosby is “innocent until proven guilty” because “he has not been proven a racist.” Since then, Goldberg has continued to stay on Cosby’s side, despite the evidence against him.
Here’s Apatow’s tweets:
