Bill Cosby is back in the news again. Three more women have come forward accusing the comedian of sexual assault. The women held a press conference with attorney Gloria Allred on Wednesday (January 07) - all basically with the same story, claiming Cosby drugged them in some capacity and then assaulted them. Cosby and his reps have previously denied all assault claims, and Cosby have never been charged with assault.

"Boyhood" is continuing to pile up its award season accolades. The Richard Linklater film was nominated for a Writers Guild Award for best original screenplay on Wednesday (January 07). The film will go up against "Foxcatcher," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "Nightcrawler," and Whiplash."

On the adapted screenplay side, "The Imitation Game" received a nod. It will compete against "American Sniper," "Gone Girl," "Guardians of the Galaxy," and "Wild." The Writers Guild will present the awards on February 14.
