A week ago, we reported that Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav said CNN is renewing its focus on “journalism” — America needs a news network where everybody can come and be heard; Republicans, Democrats,” Zaslav said.
That renewed focus on journalism can happen any day now. CNN host Don Lemon doesn’t want a network where everybody can come and be heard. “Republicans are doing something that is very dangerous to society,” he said, and journalists aren’t doing their job if they pretend that Republicans can be covered like Democrats.
Bitter Don Lemon lashes out on-air seemingly against new CNN boss Chris Licht as the "people who are in charge of what we…the American press puts out" and decries the desire to treat GOP fairly.

CNN's @donlemon openly rejected boss Chris Licht's desire to bring the network back to journalism and away from partisan hysterics

This is hilarious. Dude is melting down about his boss wanting their reporting to be even and fair.

In his defense, I’d probably not like the guy I know is about to fire me.

We are watching them in real time losing the narrative.

Well he can talk all he wants, viewers are still going to vote with their remotes and eventually CNN will be nothing more than a bad memory 🙂

Why can’t Lemon save this for his talk show on CNN+? Oh yeah, right.
What an incredibly vacant huckster.

Even President Biden seems to have given up on the “ultra-MAGA” scare tactic.
