Buzzfeed has an
article by
Kate Aurthur about a 'meme' involving
Bill Cosby:
Recently, Bill Cosby or, more likely, one of his representatives, posted a tweet asking fans to meme him. The link led to a meme generator on billcosby.com. Right away, Twitter users began subverting the meme generator to comment on the 2006 rape allegations against Cosby. (He has never been charged with sexual assault.) The accusations have re-emerged in the past year, after NBC announced it was developing a sitcom with him, a recent biography of Cosby opted not to report on the allegations, and Hannibal Buress called Cosby a “rapist” during his comedy act. Cosby’s publicist did not respond to a request for a comment from BuzzFeed News.
By Monday night, the meme generator was removed from Cosby’s website, and his tweet soliciting the fan interactivity disappeared. Cosby’s publicist did not respond to another request to comment.
Rico says he's still unclear on exactly what a
meme is, but then he doesn't really care...
