WASHINGTON — A revolting sketch in which shock jock Howard Stern performed in blackface and repeatedly used racial slurs has resurfaced ahead of Stern’s Tuesday sitdown with Vice President Kamala Harris.
In video from a 1993 New Year’s Eve pay-per-view special, Stern appears in dark makeup with exaggerated white lips while rattling off a series of racist jokes.
The sketch was meant to mock actor Ted Danson’s crude blackface performance earlier the same year at the Friar’s Club roast of his then-girlfriend Whoopi Goldberg.
In a 90-second clip reposted by former first son Donald Trump Jr., Stern used the n-word five times.
“WTF!?!?” Trump Jr., whose father has been a frequent Stern guest and attended the radio star’s 2008 wedding to wife Beth, reacted to the video.
