Don Lemon claims media freedom following CNN departure

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon stated during an appearance on The Bakari Sellers Show that his departure from the network has granted him the freedom to speak without the constraints of corporate media. Lemon remarked that he no longer feels the need to reconsider his words extensively as he did during his time in cable news.

During the discussion, Lemon invoked the spirit of Malcolm X while addressing political topics. He specifically commented on the voter base of Donald Trump, characterizing the political situation as a “white people problem” and describing supporters as “white people, co-opted, poor, and working class white people who put this man in office.”
