Don Lemon fired from CNN

[Alabuckeye]

Allegedly this interview from last week contributed to, or maybe was the last straw for, the termination of Donny:

Gotta love how the co host pulls out her cell phone at some point. Sheâ€s done with the interview and sheâ€s done with Don

I got a chuckle when Donny realized he was losing, and badly, pulls out the “Iâ€m a black man in America “ race card to a man thatâ€s darker than him.

Don Lemon demanded Tesla Cybertruck, $5M advance, equity in X before Elon Musk canned him: sources

Don Lemon demanded the sun, the moon and the stars from the SpaceX boss – before being unceremoniously dumped this week, The Post has learned.

The ex-CNN anchor sent over an astronomical wish list to Elon Musk during contract talks to host a show on the billionaire’s social media platform X – including a free Tesla Cybertruck, a $5 million upfront payment on top of an $8 million salary, an equity stake in the multibillion-dollar company, and the right to approve any changes in X policy as it relates to news content, according to a document reviewed by The Post.

Lemon — who was expected to air an interview with Musk for next week’s debut episode on X — had also demanded a private jet flight to Las Vegas, a suite for him and his fiance, and that the company pay for their day drinking and massages, a source with knowledge of the situation said.

Musk agreed to do the interview with Lemon despite the fact that he was aware of some of Lemon’s outlandish demands, sources told The Post.

Well at least he didn't ask for the green M&M's to be sorted separately from the others in the bag. Now that would have been over the top. 

What a diva. And got himself fired again.

I am still surprised Don Lemon thinks someone should pay him for his "hosting skills"  The reality is Don should be paying the companies for allowing Lemon to use up the oxygen of others.

What Lemon and the race lady on MSNBC have proven is that blacks have a massive advantage and privilege in America today.  To his credit, Lemon has taken advantage of that to become insanely wealthy even though an incompetent buffoon.  Just about any black, even though incompetent and lacking intelligence, can excel financially and career wise beyond anything they deserve because of the same factors that allowed Lemon to do that.  Unfortunately they simply refuse to do so.

He may have some privilege but lets be honest: he's also been canned.   Musk certainly told him to shove it and CNN booted him.   Several of these fools ran out the string on being black and acting the fool on TV and lost out.   Tiffany Cross is another.   That racist hag on ESPN was fired Jemele Hill and Michael Smith was bought out on ESPN too.

Should more go?   Yes.   That clown I posted on about Jawan Howard and white media who works for organization in Minnesota has a job only because he is black.  He is pathetic.

The dems created a protected class, won't let the history of slavery, discrimination, bigotry, racism, segregation go.   It's over now, and black people are as free and can achieve as much as they wish and want to work for in the nation.   IF this nation was so bad we would not see millions wanting in here to live.

If it's true as I saw that he got $20 million dollars for being canned, I think most people will take that all day to be unemployed.

Maybe, CNN says no.   I wonder since he's looking for work.  You've got 24 million and you need more?

It's strange that millions can be made by someone that devoid of any marketable skill or talent. The world of media and entertainment is a fantasy world where the rules the rest of us are governed by don't seem to apply. If you had any kind of business would you hire him to do anything for even minimum wage? That includes being a news reader if you owned a media company. I wouldn't.
