Kimmel Regrets Apology Over Sketch

Published 2 days, 3 hours ago
Description

Jimmy Kimmel’s infamous “Kids’ Table” sketch, where a child suggested nuking China to fix the national debt, sparked a firestorm of backlash—including 75,000 petition signatures, Nazi comparisons, and protests—with Kimmel initially apologizing, only to later regret it, calling the apology a surrender to pressure. Now, with a one-year Disney contract (shorter than usual), he’s learned to stand firmer on his comedic boundaries, embracing the messy, high-stakes world of late-night TV.
