ICYMI – We all know about Tucker Carlson getting booted from Fox News.
However, there was another rather large termination that took place as well during that time.
CNN cut ties with Don Lemon, and it was not very glamorous for Lemon, to say the least.
Rude!
Lemon was fuming when the news started to spread.
Lemon has been with the network for almost two decades, so he apparently expected a big shot to come to him personally.
Well, this is all new management and they really don’t seem to care what Lemon wanted, especially after his on-air behavior the last few months.
Lemon went off on Twitter over the news…

CNN insiders and former employees were more than happy to chime in on this with Fox News.
One stated, “When you are demoted, reprimanded and sent to manner class – and still don’t learn your lesson, the logical next step is termination.”
A former CNN producer added, “Don Lemon had become an embarrassing distraction after losing his primetime show.
“His morning show was a disaster and he’d lost the newsroom with his antics.”
What now for Don?
Well, maybe he can join his buddy Chris Cuomo on NewsNation, which may be the only cable news network with ratings lower than CNN.
