In a perfect world, which unfortunately we do not live in, this is the way it should be.
Unfortunately, especially in these days with the internet being such a staple in society coupled with anonymity, people just immediately read something and reach for their torches and start sharpening their pitch forks.
Is Bill Cosby a fucking saint? Hell no. I, for one try to keep what I read online as subjective as humanly possible. This guy made mistakes and I believe that these women are trying to either make a name for themselves or cash in.
Other celebs (a la Orca Winfrey) now no longer defending him is their way of doing damage control against the masses. They do have a career and livelihood to uphold and given the current state of the "hive mind" that is the internet, it only makes wise business sense to step back and disassociate yourself from those with bad reputations.
