Fox News meteorologist <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/meteorologist-janice-dean-book-reviewers-wont-touch-my-new-book-because-i-work-for-fox-news/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Janice Dean</a> let CNN anchor <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/female-co-hosts-tag-team-don-lemon-for-daring-to-defend-mens-soccer-team/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Don Lemon</a> have a piece of her mind after he stepped over a line during Thursday morning&#8217;s broadcast, referring to 51-year-old former Governor Nikki Haley (R-S.C.) as &#8220;past her prime.&#8221;
Lemon was responding to a <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/don-lemons-sexist-slam-of-nikki-haley-draws-sharp-rebuke-from-cnn-co-host/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">call from Haley</a>, who recently announced her plan to seek the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, suggesting that politicians over a certain age should take mental competency tests. &#8220;America is not past our prime. It’s just that our politicians are past theirs,&#8221; Haley said.
The CNN anchor then suggested that Haley should be careful what she wished for, arguing that because she was no longer in her &#8220;20s, 30s, and 40s,&#8221; the former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations was also &#8220;past her prime&#8221; — and Dean, among others, had something to say about that.

Don Lemon: &quot;Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime. Sorry, when a woman is considered to be in her prime in her 20s, and 30s, and maybe 40s&quot;<a href="https://t.co/5sgFzBzmut">pic.twitter.com/5sgFzBzmut</a>

&#8220;Don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just saying what the facts are,&#8221; Lemon insisted over the objections of co-host Poppy Harlow. &#8220;Google it. Everybody at home, when is a woman in her prime? It says 20s, 30s and 40s.&#8221;
&#8220;I just &#8216;googled&#8217; and found out that I&#8217;m a year older than @NikkiHaley. According to @donlemon all women aged 50 and up are &#8216;past our prime!&#8217; I&#8217;d argue we&#8217;re just getting started!&#8221; Dean tweeted in response.

Dean went on to suggest that Haley ought to use the CNN clip in her advertising going forward, adding, &#8220;Just heard @donlemon said @NikkiHaley is &#8216;past her prime&#8217; as a woman. And then when challenged he said: &#8216;just google it!&#8217; And @CNN wonders why they are hemorrhaging viewers &#8230; @NikkiHaley should use this clip in her advertising campaign. What a gift from @CNN.&#8221;

Fox Business host David Asman <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidAsmanfox/status/1626213657700098052" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pointed out</a> that former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was in her 50s and 60s when she served, adding, &#8220;Mrs. Thatcher began her historic 11-year run as PM in her 54th year.&#8221;
&#8220;Leftist misogyny: Imagine, the year is 2015, and Don Lemon is saying the exact same thing about Hillary Clinton &#8230;,&#8221; Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) commented.

&#8220;In a related story, Don Lemon is 56 and older than Nikki Haley, who he says is past her prime. It&#8217;s an utter mystery why almost no one is watching this masterpiece of a morning show hastily put together by Chris Licht,&#8221; The Hill&#8217;s media and politics columnist Joe Concha <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeConchaTV/status/1626228220705267717" target="_blank" rel="noopener">added</a>.
Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald took a different approach, saying that Lemon&#8217;s sexist and derisive commentary — and the conflict it created with his female co-hosts — was the only thing making the CNN morning show watchable.
&#8220;The absolute, utter, visceral resentment that Don Lemon has for his co-hosts for ruining his spotlight — and the contempt they return to him as a result — is one of the first entertaining things CNN has broadcast in years. I honestly can&#8217;t get enough,&#8221; he <a href="https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1626245351974883329" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>.
