Kanye West's 'Bill Cosby Innocent' Tweet Sparks Outrage on Twitter

With just one tweet, Kanye West succeeded at creating yet another Twitter storm.The rapper caused an uproar on Twitter Tuesday, when he tweeted: "BILL COSBY INNOCENT !!!!!!!!!!" West gave no explanation as to how he got to such a conclusion or any context as to why he made such a controversial comment. In fact, he moved on and posted about another hot topic -- NBA star Lebron James' new NIKE sneakers.
West's declaration of innocence for Cosby -- who is charged in a sexual assault case in Pennsylvania and has been publicly accused of assault by more than 50 women -- did not sit well with many people, including celebrities like actress and comedian Sarah Silverman.
"Kanye!! You can't be for real. FIFTY WOMEN. With nothing to gain thank to a statue of limitations ON RAPE. Oy," Silverman wrote.
