Don Lemon Claims CNN Was Never Liberal, Insists New-Look Network Will ‘Hold People to Account’

CNN anchor Don Lemon boldly asserted the network has never had a liberal stance — despite an ongoing push from top boss Chris Licht for more centrist coverage.

The left-leaning Lemon, best known for his vocal criticism of prominent Republicans, made the dubious claim during an appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” on Monday after the comedian nudged him to address CNN’s recent move toward nonpartisan coverage.

“Word on the street is that you guys aren’t allowed to be liberal anymore. Is that the case?” Colbert asked. “I don’t think we ever were liberal,” Lemon replied. Lemon’s answer drew a surprised response from Colbert, who replied, “What?”

True, it's not liberal, it's left and Democrat-biased.

[rovenstinez]

I wonder if he thinks the Pope is Catholic?

[o-n-money]

Is he lying or is he that stupid. Could be both.

[Huskrrrr]

Not liberal, PROGRESSIVE.

[RckyRaCoCo]

...and Don’s never ate a hotdog.

CNN are still commies, Jim.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Well in a way he’s right..CNN was never liberal, they are full blown communists

[AppyPappy]

It’s Democrat period. If liberals criticize the Party, CNN comes to the Party’s defense.

[SaxxonWoods]

So the new one goes broke quickly then.

[FlyingEagle]

Totalitarian Marxist Communist is far from liberal. He’s correct. CNN is not liberal.

[jmaroneps37]

But your 15 minute show on odd Thursdays will lead the way right Black Hole Don?

[Bullish]

“I don’t think we ever were liberal,”

That statement right there illustrates why Lemon should NOT be in the news or commentary business.

[John Milner]

He’s confused. He thinks “never” actually means “always.”

So he really meant CNN has always been liberal.

[joma89]

Yeah, cnn was just stupid instead.
