CNN tweeted that the network and Lemon "have parted ways."
"Don will forever be a part of the CNN family, and we thank him for his contributions over the past 17 years," CNN said in a statement. "We wish him well and will be cheering him on in his future endeavors."

Lemon wrote on Twitter, "At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play."

The clown should have never left primetime for daytime. I would have remained at my overnight position and angle for the Regis and Kathy Lee spot. Now he’s done. CNN is the last train on the relevant track.

If I was him, I would probably expect his husband to leave him too. White spouses aren’t known for their love when the money is gone.

I don't think he wanted that Daytime slot.

When he first got moved to the morning show he was making statements about how it was not a demotion.

They cleaned house. That’s how he landed there. It was a disaster waiting to happen. They tossed away CNN+ after dropping $50 million on it in less than a month. You don’t think they will fire your Elliot Gould glasses wearing ass just cause? Who’s gonna feel sorry for you? White women aren’t standing by the black man as he tears down an Indian woman who cosplay as a white woman. Black women? Gurl, you’re married to a white man? White men? You can cherish your Pete Booticheck correspondence but that’s not going to help you? Black men? Son, you are no Omar.
 
I knew that was coming. Lemon fell for the okey doke when Chris Licht told him he wanted him to move to mornings but it was not a reflection or an indication of his future at the network. The misogyny allegations were a convenient excuse to bounce him. Sorry Don you how treacherous and duplicitous white people are, you should have known better. :smh:
 
I knew that Don Lemon wasn't going to be at CNN too long!!..It's alot of BS going on at CNN and I believe that Don Lemon really didn't want to be there no more neither..


NewsNation need to go and get Don Lemon on their Network!!...Bring back that Crumo and Lemon connection again!!..They bring good news!!.. :yes:

And alas.... instead of merging this REPOST like the others were.... the bias continues as you bump this thred

Told cats at work them batty's thought they were always protected by being a minority and a batty man...probably thought he was untouchable.
 
Let’s be honest. Most white liberals and independents do not want to see all of the deva feminine behaviors on prime time morning. Crossing his legs like a lady does and believing that he’s untouchable because he’s flaming gay. Not following the producer’s direction when they told him in his earpiece to move forward. He got his faggot nigga wake up call. After the blowup with the feminist statements the made him wear a tie and be more professional.
 

Don Lemon’s fiery exchange with GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy left CNN leaders ‘exasperated’​

Don Lemon’s fiery on-air exchange with GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy left CNN leaders “exasperated” ahead of his shocking ouster from the cable news network, according to a report.
Lemon got into a heated argument with Ramaswamy on the set of “CNN This Morning” last Wednesday and the televised clash reportedly played a role in his firing, the New York Times reported.
The banished CNN star’s visible irritability during the conversation with Ramaswamy on the Civil Rights movement, black Americans and the Second Amendment “left several CNN leaders exasperated,” two sources told the paper.
In the footage of the interview, it appears producers were attempting to advise Lemon through the heated debate.
“Please, I cannot keep a thought if you guys are talking in my ear,” he said at one point during the segment.




00:30 00:58
Ramaswamy told Fox News Digital that he thought it was clear their on-air confrontation “played a role” in CNN’s decision to drop Lemon.

“I think that any network that wants to foster open debate should embrace that principle by not restricting what someone can say or saying what someone can say is restricted based on their skin color,” Ramaswamy told the outlet. “And I think they made the right decision here.”

Lemon, who is black, had said it was “insulting” that the GOPer was “sitting here, whatever ethnicity you are, explaining to me what it’s like to be black in America.”

The televised clash was the latest story about Lemon to make waves following a series of recent headlines about his allegedly troubling behavior.

One of his most notable missteps was his comments about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley being “past her prime” at age 51. He added that “a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe 40s” in a statement that was called out as sexist by people on all sides.

He also spared with his female co-hosts and reportedly belittled anchor Kaitlan Collins after being forced to share the spotlight.


The controversies leading up to Don Lemon’s CNN firing​


Don Lemon is no stranger to controversy.
The now ex-CNN anchor was in hot water multiple times in the lead-up to Monday’s shock firing — from his infamous Nikki Haley “past her prime” remark to a screaming match with a female co-host and alleged “diva” behavior.
CNN hasn’t provided a public explanation for Lemon’s ouster after 17 years with the cable news network. But Lemon took to Twitter to insist that he had been blindsided by the news after hosting “CNN This Morning” earlier in the day.
Below are just a few of Lemon’s recent controversies.

Beef with his co-host​

In December last year, Lemon is said to have “screamed” at his co-anchor, Kaitlan Collins, after an on-air segment, sources told The Post at the time.
When the cameras stopped rolling after the Dec. 8 show, he allegedly approached Collins and unleashed on her in front of staffers for supposedly “interrupting” him on air.
“Don screamed at Kaitlan, who was visibly upset and ran out of the studio,” one source said.
In the aftermath, a source said: “At this point, Kaitlan wants to be on set with Don as little as possible … It’s messy.”

Soccer spat​

Just weeks before his alleged screaming match, Lemon clashed with his two female co-hosts over on-air remarks he made about women’s soccer.
Lemon got into an awkward dispute with both Collins and Harlow after he suggested the US men’s soccer team should get paid more than the women’s side.
“The men’s team makes more money. If they make more money, then they should get more money,” Lemon said.
“The men’s team makes more money because people are more interested in the men.”

Diva-like behavior​

A damning Variety magazine report published earlier this month alleged Lemon has a long history of sexist and “diva-like behavior.”
The report cited roughly a dozen former CNN staffers who listed several alleged instances of misogynistic behavior.

Lemon slammed his abrupt firing from CNN Monday, claiming to have been blind-sighted by the decision.

“I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned after 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have the decency to tell me directly,” Lemon wrote in a statement on Twitter.

“At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play.”

Trump cheers ouster of ‘dumbest man on television’ Don Lemon from CNN​

MORE ON:DONALD TRUMP​

Former President Donald Trump cheered the demise of Don Lemon, asking why it took so long for CNN to fire “the dumbest man on television” – but said he was “shocked” that Tucker Carlson was out at Fox News.
“Good News: ‘The dumbest man on television,’ Don Lemon, has finally been fired from Fake News CNN. My only question is, WHAT TOOK THEM SO LONG?” Trump said on Truth Social late Monday.
The 45th president’s comments came shortly after the longtime CNN anchor claimed on Twitter that he had been blindsided by news of his ouster after 17 years with the network.
In 2019, Trump ripped into Lemon for accusing him of bigotry during a Democratic presidential debate.
“CNN’s Don Lemon, the dumbest man on television, insinuated last night while asking a debate ‘question’ that I was a racist, when in fact I am ‘the least racist person in the world,’” Trump tweeted.




00:1400:58
“Perhaps someone should explain to Don that he is supposed to be neutral, unbiased & fair, or is he too dumb (stupid} to understand that. No wonder CNN’s ratings (MSNBC’s also) have gone down the tubes — and will stay there until they bring credibility back to the newsroom. Don’t hold your breath!” he added at the time.
Three years earlier, Trump called Lemon a “lightweight – dumb as a rock.”
Lemon, who is black, responded by accusing Trump of using a racist trope.

“The president has called a lot of people stupid. Some of those people are white,” he said on the air. “But I would just like to note that referring to an African American as dumb — remember this is America — is one of the oldest canards of America’s racist past and present: that black people are of inferior intelligence.”
In September, Trump mocked Lemon for being moved to the mornings from his primetime show.
“A small step for television, a giant step for mankind. Don Lemon, often called ‘the dumbest man on television’ having made even Lebron James look smart during their interview two years ago, has been FIRED from his prime time evening spot on CNN — extremely low ratings — and will be thrown into their ‘Death Valley’ morning show,” he wrote.
“I assume this means a BIG salary cut prior to his Complete & Total future firing from Ratings Challenged (to put it mildly!) CNN. Good luck Don, you’ll need it! MAGA!!!” Trump added.

On Monday, Lemon said in a tweet: “I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN. I am stunned after 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have the decency to tell me directly.
“At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I have loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play,” he added.
But CNN fired back: “Don Lemon’s statement about this morning’s events is inaccurate. He was offered an opportunity to meet with management but instead released a statement on Twitter.”

Former Trump White House adviser Kellyanne Conway also slammed Lemon, calling him “mean, misogynist and unrepentant” during an appearance with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Monday.
“I want you to understand this because this is the difference between Don Lemon and [Hannity] and other people, he was always unprepared,” she said, adding that he had “screamed” at his morning co-host Kaitlin Collins.
She said CNN CEO Chris Licht showed “some moxie” for the first time by firing Lemon.
Meanwhile, Trump told Newsmax host Greg Kelly that he was “shocked” to hear that Carlson was out at Fox News.
Tucker CarlsonFox News announced Monday that it was parting ways with Tucker Carlson.AP
“I’m shocked, I’m surprised. He’s a very good person and very good man. And very talented, as you know, he had very high ratings. So, we’re just learning about it almost as we speak … that was something, that’s a big one,” he said.

“I don’t know if it was voluntary, or was it somebody fired? But I think Tucker has been terrific. He’s been, especially over the last year or so, he’s been terrific to me,” added Trump, who is seeking the GOP nomination for the 2024 presidential election.
Fox News said it had “agreed to part ways” with Carlson, who hosted “Tucker Carlson Tonight” at 8 p.m. weeknights.
“We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor,” the network said in a statement Monday.

The announcement came days after Fox News’ parent company settled Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit for $787.5 million.

The lawsuit had accused Fox News of airing false election claims and conspiracy theories in the wake of the 2020 presidential election.
On April 11, Trump sat down for an interview with Carlson after his unprecedented arrest in Manhattan, where he was arraigned on 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection to hush-money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal..
