Gina Grad joins Ana for SCS. After Don Lemon asked one of Bill Cosby’s alleged rape victims why she didn’t bite his penis, he had her back on to talk about how she wasn’t offended by his questions.

After rumors flew that Raven Symone was molested by Cosby, she responded strongly against the allegations. Mattel is apologizing for a Barbie book they released that depicted her as an incompetent computer engineer that needed help from her male co-workers.
