ICYMI – It would appear that CNN’s Don Lemon has finally gone too far.
After some rather sexist comments about Nikki Haley, Lemon has been temporarily put on the sidelines.
According to multiple reports, CNN’s CEO personally addressed the situation with Lemon.
Sit Down!
Lemon was used to his own gig and yucking it up with Chris Cuomo during the handoff.
That has significantly changed with Lemon on the morning show.
On multiple occasions now, he has upset these female co-hosts, but his comments about Haley being past her prime really set them off, with one of his female co-anchors storming off the set.
Lemon apologized, stating, “The reference I made to a woman’s ‘prime’ this morning was inartful and irrelevant, as colleagues and loved ones have pointed out, and I regret it.
“A woman’s age doesn’t define her either personally or professionally.
“I have countless women in my life who prove that every day.”
That fell on deaf ears, however, as nobody believed the apology was heartfelt.
Lemon was benched with reports that he may return some days later after completing some training.
I will go out on a limb and say that Lemon’s days at CNN are numbered.
