Another late-night Jimmy is apologizing for blackface.
FirstJimmy Fallon, now Jimmy Kimmel.
(The more formal late-night James, Corden, remains unscathed for now.)
That delay was a mistake.
Kimmel is specifically apologizing for a recurring impersonation of basketball player Karl Malone in the late 1990s.
In each case, I thought of them as impersonations of celebrities and nothing more.
Looking back, he slaps himself on the wrist, simply calling the impressions embarrassing.
I love this country too much to allow that.
