(268,999 posts)He was full of praise for the people of Charleston and when Lemon asked him what he thought of Obama's eulogy/sermon he said it was excellent.
That should make him a few more enemies.

In an interview with Glenn Beck, CNNs Don Lemon said something that really doesnt surprise anyone who follows his reporting: Hes a conservative who thinks he tells the truth though many of his truths have been endlessly mocked by anyone with critical thinking skills.
For instance, there was that time he agreed with Bill OReilly that black people need to pull up your pants. Lemon continued, suggesting that black people do not have the right to say the n-word in an effort to take it back from white racists. He further suggested that black people in Harlem are destroying their community by littering, perpetuated the stereotype that black people drop out of school, and the right-wing favorite claim that the biggest problem in the black community is unwed mothers popping out babies:
Then there was his suggestion that God abducted Flight MH370. Especially today, on a day when we deal with the supernatural, we go to church, the supernatural power of God. You deal with all of that, Lemon said to Brad Meltzer, host of the History Channels Decoded. People are saying to me, why arent you talking about the possibility and Im just putting it out there that something odd happened to this plane, something beyond our understanding? CNN Wordwide president Jeff Zucker advised Lemon, Dont be an idiot after this segment.
