Don Lemon

Wednesday night on his eponymous Fox News Channel show, host Tucker Carlson brutally mocked CNN and one of their prime-time hosts Don Lemon for what Tucker describes as "their total lack of self-awareness."  

Former President Trump once called CNN’s Don Lemon “the dumbest man on television.” And on Thursday night he once again proved it by showing how he doesn’t understand what constitutes a majority of the Senate. Lashing out at Senate Republicans and Democratic Senators Kyrsten Sinema (AZ) and Joe Manchin (WV), he suggested the refusal to blow up the filibuster was the “minority ruling the…

CNN host Don Lemon leaned in Wednesday night into his claim from almost one year ago exactly about Trump supporters that earned him our Chris Cuomo Memorial Award for Worst Quote of the Year. During his eponymous show, Lemon insisting those who oppose him, President Biden, and other Democrats, aren’t like the KKK, Nazis, segregationists like Bull Connor and George Wallace, and treasonists like…

On Wednesday afternoon, the House Select Committee on January 6 requested cooperation from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). Naturally, CNN returned January 6 to its prime position as, from 3:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. Eastern, the Jeff Zucker-led network spent 97 minutes obsessing over what it (and other developments) meant for the probe. In contrast to the 97 minutes and 19 seconds on…

It was bound to be a nauseating day for anyone who turned on CNN or MSNBC Thursday during their voluminous coverage for the first anniversary of the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and, according to a NewsBusters tallying of their live programming (20 hours on CNN and 19 hours on MSNBC), they didn’t disappoint. All told, the two far-left channels spent 1,653 minutes marking the occasion and…

After filling in on Fox News Sunday following former anchor Chris Wallace’s exit from the show last week, Fox News Channel anchor Bret Baier appeared on the network’s MediaBuzz with anchor Howard Kurtz and took down CNN and their “just silly” criticism against their network that was designed to generate “clicks” and play for ratings.

CNN host Don Lemon is still pretending he’s always been critical of the radical left’s soft approach to crime. But not too long ago, he was actually mocking concerns about rising crime. He took his own hypocrisy over to New Day Thursday morning, to protect liberal officials who were doing an about face on defunding the police as well.

It was a challenging task but an esteemed panel of NewsBusters editors led by MRC President L.Brent Bozell and MRC’s Vice President for Research and Publications Brent Baker boiled down all the biased outbursts from lefty hack hosts, anchors, reporters and pundits in 2021 and declared a winner.

On Tuesday, The Right Scoop reported on CNN demanding Fox News be banned from covering the White House: “Last night Don Lemon pressed his colleagues on CNN about Fox News, asking why Jen Psaki continues to call on the network and why they should even be allowed in the briefing room.”

On both Thursday and Friday night, CNN host Don Lemon was oblivious to the role that the media-supported anti-police movement has played in increasing both the number of homicides and the number of traffic deaths as he aired segments blaming other factors -- like guns and the pandemic -- for the tragic turn toward more deaths.

CNN was finally forced to fire Chris Cuomo over the extensive assistance the prime-time host provided to brother Andrew regarding his various scandals. So you might think that "The Most Trusted Name in News" would be on high alert to avoid any similar journalistic malpractice by its anchors. But incredibly, as our Nicholas Fondacaro has reported, CNN permitted Don Lemon on his show last night…

Days after CNN suspended and ultimately fired host Chris Cuomo for journalistic misconduct, former Empire actor and accused hate crime hoaxer Jussie Smollett took the stand in his own defense on Monday, where he’s accused of lying to police, and testified that CNN race-baiter and late-night host Don Lemon tipped him off to skepticism from Chicago police.

The news that CNN had indefinitely suspended Chris Cuomo broke shortly before the broadcast evening newscasts went live at 6:30 p.m. Eastern early Tuesday night. And the only on-air mention of the move that day came in a less-than-one-minute notation from host Anderson Cooper moments before Cuomo Prime Time would normally air and announcing a second hour of his show, AC360,…

CNN went ahead and allowed Prime Time host Chris Cuomo to do his show Monday night under a darkening cloud of mistrust and scandal. The cause? New evidence released by the New York attorney general’s office exposed how intertwined Chris was with the executive office of his brother, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo as he faced multiple accusations of sexual misconduct. And while…
