Kimmel offers apology for skit

Jimmy Kimmel has apologized for a blackface TV skit in which he performed, as well as impersonations of other Black celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey and Snoop Dogg. He mimicked Black basketball star

Karl Malone on Comedy Central’s The Man Show, which aired from 1999 to 2004. “I apologize to those who were genuinely hurt or offended by the makeup I wore or the words I spoke,” Kimmel said. “I believe that I have evolved and matured over the last 20-plus years, and I hope that is evident to anyone who watches my show.”
