Shattered: The cover of the November issue of Ebony magazine features a cast picture of The Cosby Show marred by broken glass
Cosby's effect on the perception of African American culture in America has divided observers.
Ebony Magazine's November issue features a picture of Bill Cosby, 78, in character as Cliff Huxtable on the family favourite The Cosby Show, then superimposed by a broken pane of glass over the portrait.
The image has stirred controversy, especially among Twitter users. 

As it's not even on news stands yet, Ebony decided to tweet the cover photo, and accompanied it with an explanation. 
'#ICYMI - our November issue separates Cliff Huxtable & Bill Cosby.'
A Twitter firestorm of both approval and disgust then spread, as individuals weighed in as to whether the cover and corresponding story would even be helpful in determining Cosby's impact.
