Not counting the stuff that has been falsely attributed to him here the problem with Cosby is that he gets a lot of stuff right, more than a lot of celebrities out there and enough that he deserves to be taken seriously on a lot of issues. However, with that he also seems to often say things that are either hypocritical, or things that are detached from reality and doesn't make sense in the real world because he has been elite and hasn't had to live in the real world for so long he's probably forgotten what it's really like. He seems like the person that is so sure of himself that he’s lost the ability to step back and think about all of what he says, and the fact that he‘s actually right a good portion of the time probably help that.
