CNN Anchor Faults Cosby Rape Accuser

CNN host Don Lemon has come under fire after telling one of Bill Cosby’s alleged sexual-assault victims, “You know, there are ways not to perform oral sex if you didn’t want to do it.” While interviewing Joan Tarshis, Lemon transitioned into the topic by saying, “You lied to him and said ‘I have an infection, and if you rape me, or if you do—if you have intercourse with me, then you will probably get it and give it to your wife.’ And you said he made you perform oral sex.” After Tarshis concurred, Lemon asked his bizarre question, and then followed up, after she said she didn’t think of it, by suggesting she could have used her teeth.
