'Shattered' Bill Cosby on 'Ebony' cover enrages, gratifies Twitter

Ebony, the leading black lifestyle magazine, put Bill Cosby on its November cover, sparking both satisfaction and rage on Twitter from the army of Cosby foes and his dwindling band of defenders.

The cover picture is actually two decades old — a group shot of Cosby with The Cosby Show co-stars, including Phylicia Rashad, who played his wife, and four of the actors who played his children.

But Cosby's grinning face is nearly obscured by an image of shattered glass.
