“I am a journalist, and I know that Bill Cosby has denied these allegations and has said again and again that he's not guilty of these charges. So I say that. But as as a woman listening to all these stories, it was very difficult to not be moved, to not feel that it would be an incredible coincidence if all these women had made up the same exact story with the same type of behavior in the same patterns.” — Kate Snow
In our final episode of the decade, we’re taking a look back at a memorable episode: NBC Anchor and Correspondent Kate Snow’s conversation, following her 2017 duPont award for the Dateline NBC report, “The Cosby Accusers Speak.” The special featured 27 of Cosby’s accusers in a group interview and aired almost two years before reporting on accusations against Harvey Weinstein made the #MeToo movement go viral.
Snow shares her team’s experience of gathering into one room more than two dozen of the women who accused Bill Cosby of sexual harassment and assault. She talks about conducting the powerful award-winning group interview and the complex process of getting the women’s stories. See the full Dateline NBC News story here.
