Listen "Don Lemon"
Episode Synopsis
Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with Don Lemon, the former CNN host who just launched his new independent venture, The Don Lemon Show, with a dramatic splash. The first episode of his show featured a lengthy interview with billionaire Elon Musk — who was so upset by the tough questions he abruptly canceled his multi-million dollar deal with Lemon to host the show on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
Lemon discusses how the deal came to be and how it fell apart, what he thinks of the interview now that it's aired, what's next for his show, returning to CNN months after he was ousted from the network, and the future of the media business.
