Standup comic Hannibal Buress, whose 2014 remark about sexual-assault accusations against Bill Cosby went viral, is getting another serious surge of attention. “I’ve done this bit on stage, and people think I’m making it up,” Burress said. “Bill Cosby has a lot of rape allegations. When you leave here, Google ‘Bill Cosby rape.’”Cellphone video of the moment taken by then-Philadelphia Magazine reporter Dan McQuade went viral, and so did the allegations. Buress was silent on the subject after Thursday’s verdict against Cosby, tweeting out only tour dates, and his representatives didn’t respond to requests for a statement.
