‘Shut Up! Shut Up!’ How Is Don Lemon Still Employed As An Objective Journalist?

Don Lemon is one of the many anchors on CNN for whom continued employment seems increasingly difficult to understand. After all, given that the network’s slogans include “The most trusted name in news,” “Facts first,” and “The worldwide leader in news,” Don Lemon’s “reporting” seems to fly in the face of these goals.

Here are examples from just the last few days alone in which Don Lemon proves himself to be an unprofessional, unserious commentator masquerading as a news anchor. If the legacy media actually values truth, and CNN’s proud slogans are grounded in reality, it’s impossible to justify Lemon’s continued presence on our airwaves.
