CNN Edits Out Oscar Winner's Slap At Don Lemon For His 'Past Her Prime' Insult

In a transparent attempt to protect beleaguered co-host Don Lemon, CNN This Morning committed very flagrant bias by omission.

At last night's Oscars ceremony, Best Actress winner Michelle Yeoh, 60, capped her acceptance speech by saying [video]:

"Ladies, don't let anybody tell you you are ever past your prime."

Yeoh's statement was a clear slap at Don Lemon. CNN recently suspended Lemon and subjected him to sensitivity training for having insisted that Nikki Haley, 51, "isn't in her prime."

But in CNN This Morning's Oscars coverage today, the show cut out the part of Yeoh's speech in which she uttered her "past her prime" shot at Lemon.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

The Two Decade run of (British) Hong Kong Action Movies was exciting and unique.

Michelle was 30 and looked almost underage in the 1992 physical triumph you reference.

And she was as amazing and brave as you represent, as was the enthusiastic leader of the bunch, Jackie Chan.

We are fortunate for those times, that place, and those people.
