Bill Cosby slams Eddie Murphy over comments made on Saturday Night Live

Following Eddie Murphy’s appearance on SNL, something that gave the show its highest ratings since 2017, Bill Murphy slammed him.

Here’s Eddie Murphy’s joke which caused the whole thing: Eddie played Bill Cosby during his appearance, and in the middle of it, he said, “I have 10 children and if you had told me 30 years ago that I would be this boring stay-at-home house dad and Bill Cosby would be in jail, even I would have took that bet.” Then came that famous impression. “Who is America’s dad now?!”

Bill Cosby was unimpressed, and his publicist, Andrew Wyatt took to Bill Cosby’s Instagram page to respond. He even went as far as to call Eddie Murphy a Hollywood slave.

He wrote:

“Bill Cosby’s Publicist, Andrew Wyatt, responds to Eddie Murphy’s SNL Monologue: “Mr. Cosby became the first Black to win an Emmy for his role in I Spy and Mr. Cosby broke color barriers in the Entertainment Industry, so that Blacks like Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappell, Kevin Hart and et al., could have an opportunity to showcase their talents for many generations to come.

“It is sad that Mr. Murphy would take this glorious moment of returning to SNL and make disparaging remarks against Mr. Cosby. One would think that Mr. Murphy was given his freedom to leave the plantation, so that he could make his own decisions; but he decided to sell himself back to being a Hollywood Slave.

“Stepin Fetchit plus cooning equals the destruction of Black Men in Hollywood. Remember, Mr. Murphy, that Bill Cosby became legendary because he used comedy to humanize all races, religions and genders; but your attacking Mr. Cosby helps you embark on just becoming click bait.

“Hopefully, you will be amenable to having a meeting of the minds conversation, in order to discuss how we can use our collective platforms to enhance Black people rather than bringing all of us down together.” #NotFunnySNL #SNL #FarFromFinished #FreeBillCosby #BillCosby”
