But that message was missed by Cosby’s spokesman Andrew Wyatt. Instead of trying to understand the purpose of Rochelle’s protest, he shamed her for protesting while topless: “What concerns me is that you’re out here protesting, and you have the right to protest for sexual assault victims, and you protest and take your clothing off. What kind of message does that send?”
