I've gotten a lot of questions recently about the 'Jackson Jive' black face skit on the TV show 'Hey Hey It's Saturday'. I know it's picked up a great deal of airplay in the U.S. so I thought it'd be worthwhile to discuss it here in the context of what I've experienced thus far. For those of you who haven't heard about it a group of guys did a supposedly humourous skit where they were all in black face except the lead singer who played Michael Jackson and wore white paint on his face. How might something like this happen in this day and age?
