It is truly a sad day for America. Prior to my hearing of these allegations of sexual assault, like so many others, I was a huge fan of just about everything Cosby did.Last year, in my work as a part-time reporter for our local small-town newspaper, my reporting of the facts brought about the resignation under pressure of our city manager.
