ANI New York

As an expansive feature on the sexual assault charges on Bill Cosby, New York magazine has featured 35 women, who were assaulted by the comedian, as their magazine's cover.

Posting a picture of the cover on the magazine's Instagram page, the company has captioned it, "So far, 46 women have come forward to accuse Bill Cosby of sexual assault, in some cases, according to a recently unsealed deposition, with the aid of quaaludes-a powerful sedative that can render a person functionally immobile."

The caption further read, "But these allegations are by no means new, with some stretching back decades-to a time when the culture of rape in America left victims little recourse but to suffer silently, and in shame."

 

The cover was released a week after the deposition of the 78-year-old comedian taken during a sexual assault lawsuit from 2005 came out and the issue covers 35 women out of the 46, who came forward with the accusations.
