CNN anchor Don Lemon said Friday that it's his "obligation as a journalist" to call President Trump a racist.
“Critical thinking is important as a journalist. If you cannot surmise that this president — if he’s not racist, he’s certainly racist-adjacent," Lemon told an audience as the keynote speaker at Variety’s Entertainment & Technology NYC Summit. "We have come to a consensus in our society that facts matter. I feel like it’s my obligation to say that.”
“If you have the evidence that shows you, that leads you to nothing else but this president being racist, then I feel it’s my obligation as a journalist to say it," he added.
Lemon called the president racist on the Jan. 11 edition of "CNN Tonight,” the same day the first reports emerged that Trump had referred to Haiti and African nations as “shithole countries” during an Oval Office meeting with lawmakers....

Your responsibility as a journalist is to report the news, not propagandizing.
That’s for sure!
Is this the “journalist” who thought a missing plane might have been sucked into a black hole?
A journalist?
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Then again, as a black man, I see racists everywhere......there's one under my desk."
Wow! What courage calling President Trump a racist on DNCNN.
Is this website capable of allowing a poll with on-line voting and results? If so, can someone please set one up that would allow us to vote on which person is dumber - Maxine Waters or Don Lemon.
“We have come to a consensus in our society that facts matter.”
As long as its their “facts” that matter.
“Also, calling Haiti and African countries “*hitholes” doesn’t make anyone a “racist.” It’s simply pointing out the truth.”
I think Mr Lemmon takes such offense because he knows that most of the countries that fall into the Shitehole category are populated by people that look like him.
It is my DUTY as a citizen to call Don Lemon a cocksucker, because he is, and does.
He is also a racist, and profoundly stupid.
[What the H is ‘racist-adjacent’?]
Its like granular awareness.
If he was a journalist, he could come up with a better description.
Gosh, I remember what our fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Snodgrass, taught all us children.
“When life gives you Don Lemons, just flush the toilet so he’ll go away.”
You just don’t find that kind of wisdom in schools anymore.
Because journalists don't exist today, they are Democrat activists and when the Left has nothing left all they can do is cry racist.
Lemon, you are a clown and are hate.
It is your obligation as a journalist to report facts, not bigoted opinions.
The Race Card is becoming weaker by the day due to the fact the lefts survival depends upon their increasing use of it.
Eventually, they will destroy themselves following their current path.
Don’t forget , Businessman Donald Trump bought his first Country Club in Florida and immediately changed the Membership Rules to allow Blacks and Jews to join, which upset rival Club Owners .
Yeah, he’s a bigot...
“Malaysian airliner being sucked into a black hole.”
LOL! I forgot about that!
“little Miss Lemon.” You nailed him! Good work.
“Don always acts like he has something shoved up his ass..no pun intended..”
I think He will take a pun and a cucumber if needed.
