Don Lemon has the attitude of a rapper these days — doing what he wants, when he wants and clapping back at anyone that wants problems with him. The latest victim to be dragged by OG Don is Fox News host Bill O’Reilly, who accused the CNN anchor of refusing to cover allegations that former Obama official Susan Rice […]
2016 was a difficult year for a lot of us, including those in the news media business. So can we really blame Don Lemon for getting sh*t-faced during his live New Year’s Eve broadcast from New Orleans on CNN? The veteran anchor’s antics included taking shots on camera, confessing his resolutions to an audience of millions, hollering at New Orleans […]
It’s a new day when Don Lemon becomes the voice of reason. One of Donald Trump’s minions Betsy McCaughey appeared on ‘CNN Tonight With Don Lemon’ and used Beyonce’s ‘Formation’ lyrics to try to justify recent footage of Trump admitting to sexual assault. “Hillary Clinton expresses that she finds the language on the that […]
I’m not sure you were up that late, but I was up until the wee hours covering the riots in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was the second night in a row of the protests that turned violent. Tuesday night 16 officers were injured. Wednesday night 1 officer was injured and taken to a hospital. […]
The attacks that took place in New York and New Jersey over the weekend should and are being taken seriously. They are certainly being debated out on the campaign trail between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. But I have a couple of questions for you. The first one is just to give context to what […]
Donald Trump is still out on the campaign trail saying he’s the candidate for black and Hispanic people. Last night he took his case to the people of Mississippi. “The Democratic Party has failed and betrayed the African-American community. Democratic crime policies, education policies, and economic policies have produced only more crime, more broken […]
For a week now I have been discussing with you on this program, Donald Trump’s outreach to black America. Well, he got a lot of criticism for the way he framed it, but that didn’t stop Trump for doubling down in Akron, Ohio on Monday night by saying some urban, black neighborhoods are more dangerous […]
Last time we talked about reports that Donald Trump’s campaign would encourage him to make a serious play for African Americans. Well that play is underway now. It started with a speech on Tuesday night in Wisconsin, the site of recent unrest after the shooting death of an armed black man by police. Trump told […]
The Justice Department delivered a scathing report on the Baltimore Police Department. Yes, the same department that arrested Freddie Gray who ended shortly thereafter. The Justice Department states that there were systemic problems that plague the police department. Much like the Ferguson findings, the DOJ report alleges that for more than a decade the police […]
Last week it was the Republicans. This week it’s the Democrat’s turn. It got off to a rocky start with Florida Congresswoman and DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the DNC email controversy. She tried to speak on Monday morning at Florida delegation breakfast and got boo’d off the stage. “Boo. Alright now settle down […]
The Republican National Convention got underway in Cleveland yesterday. It started with a ruckus when Never Trump delegates tried unsuccessfully to force a floor vote to undermine Donald Trump’s nomination. That was true drama but it doesn’t compare to the controversy surrounding Melania Trump’s speech. If parts of it sounds familiar to you, it should […]
If you blinked might have missed it. Seriously, if you weren’t in front of a television or listening on line or the radio – which most of us weren’t – around quitting time on Wednesday, you probably missed President Obama going on a rant. A rant is what he called it. Though he never mentioned […]
