Don Lemon and CNN Parting Ways
Another parting ways. Don Lemon and CNN parting ways
Lemon, one of the network’s most recognizable stars, had been under scrutiny since making remarks about women and aging in February that were widely perceived to be sexist. CNN said on Monday that it was parting ways with Mr. Lemon, a star anchor who was a fixture of the network’s prime-time lineup before enduring a short but controversial tenure as a morning show co-host. Then minutes ago (April 24th), Don Lemon confirmed.
“CNN and Don have parted ways,” the network said in a statement on Monday. “Don will forever be a part of the CNN family, and we thank him for his contributions over the past 17 years. We wish him well and will be cheering him on in his future endeavors.”
The network said Mr. Lemon’s morning show, which he hosted with Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins, would continue. “‘CNN This Morning’ has been on the air for nearly six months, and we are committed to its success,” CNN said.
Just 30 minutes ago, Tucker Carlson was supposed to do a show tonight. He was set to interview Vivek Ramaswamy (another GOP candidate on Presidential Election 2024). Fox had been promoting it this AM.
Whatever happened, it was abrupt.
