CNN’s Don Lemon Demands Media Cover Republicans Differently: They Are A ‘Danger’ To Society
The Political Insider ^ | 7/15/2022 | Rusty Weiss

CNN primetime host Don Lemon is demanding the media cover Republicans differently than Democrats, suggesting they are a danger to society and cannot be “coddled.”

It’s a refreshing change for the liberal media to just flat out admit their bias.

Lemon’s comments came amidst an appearance on “New Day” Thursday morning as the discussion pivoted to covering conservatives in the media.

The CNN anchor said he believes giving equal time and coverage to both political parties is a ‘false equivalency.’

“We sit around and we talk about these things and we want to give this false equivalence to Democrats and Republicans. That is not where we are right now,” he claimed. “Republicans are doing something that is very dangerous to our society and we have to acknowledge that.”

Lemon added, “We have to acknowledge that as Americans, we must acknowledge that as journalists because if we don’t, we are not doing our jobs.”

“We want to give this false equivalence to … Republicans.”

He said that with a straight face.

CNN host Don Lemon proceeded to suggest the media should badger guests appearing on their respective shows regarding the Capitol riot and surrounding events, as well as the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“They have to answer for those questions if they come here on CNN, they must answer for that. If they go on MSNBC, they must answer for that. If they go on ABC, they must answer for that,” he threatened.

“And they cannot expect to be coddled when they go on to a news organization or if they step in front of a crowd of supporters or voters or Americans.”

Just another America-hating, affirmative action token with a big f****** mouth.

This fruit really needs his own solitary confinement room to chill for a couple of decades.

According to the New York Post, the cable news network had reported only 548,000 viewers during the week of Jan. 3, 2022. This is a vast difference from the nearly 2.7 million viewers CNN ranked in on the same week a year prior.

The same week in 2021 did see the January 6th attack on the Capitol which gave the left-wing network its most-watched day since launching in 1980. However, in current times, their rival right wing news network Fox scored a huge day in the ratings.

They are toast!!!!
