Famed model Beverly Johnson made waves last week when she gave her Vanity Fair account of being drugged by beleaguered comedian Bill Cosby.
She sat down for an interview with ABC News.

Today, Johnson appeared on ABC’s The View to share her story.
Beverly Johnson said she came out because she "saw all these courageous women telling a story eerily similar to mine." #TheView #BillCosby

"I was devastated and I really didn't know what happened. It's a feeling of loss. I was numb." – Beverly Johnson #theview

Comedian/actress Whoopi Goldberg, who has vigorously defended Cosby, gave Johnson the ‘3rd degree’ according to some viewers.
Whoopi "Were you raped"?
Beverly "No I was not raped ….paused…..stumbles/stutters I don't think I was raped, no"— Mz. Chitown ? (@UBigMadLilMad) December 15, 2014
Wish that #TheView would have had @Rosie moderate the Beverly Johnson segment, for empathy, before Whoopi began her cross-examination.

Whoopi doesn't believe Beverly Johnson; it's obvious. #TheView

Disgusted by whoopi Goldberg and her treatment of Beverly Johnson. She would never give Cosby the same treatment. Shame on you.

Not everyone condemned Goldberg’s aggressive line of questioning.
She held herself right. RT “@buckhollywood: @TheView enjoyed Beverly Johnson. Whoopi did her best to ask mostly appropriate questions.”

I think Whoopi asked hard questions sensitively. Beverly was very credible and poised and answered the questions w/o vitriol. #TheView

Maybe The View should invite Rolling Stone’s Sabrina Erdely on the show for a Whoopi once-over. That would be good tee-vee.
