“Stephen A. Smith has apologized following his controversial statements last week on Fox News, where he attempted to equate Donald Trump’s mounting legal problems with the historic struggles of Black people, sparking outrage on social media, mainly among civil rights advocates.
Four days after his disastrous comments, Smith addressed the growing backlash in a five-minute video apology, saying he wanted to hold himself accountable for comparing Trump’s legal plight “to what Black Americans have gone through,” while he also cited “historic and iconic” Black figures during his eyebrow-raising interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on April 18.
However, Smith’s apology may have backfired, as many social media users criticized him for trying to insult the intelligence of Black people, with many accusing him of pandering to Fox News’ white audience.”
