CNN is undergoing a revamp with all its operations, supposedly in a move to make the network more geared toward unbiased journalism—think Bernard Shaw days. Some insufferable clowns have already been fired, but this will be a long-term project if it’s genuine. In the meantime, all doesn’t appear well on CNN’s This Morning set, where Don Lemon reportedly got into a shouting match with co-host Kaitlin Collins during a commercial break.

That blow-up occurred on December 8, allegedly ruining late-night plans with the cohosts before a White House Christmas party. Poppy Harlow, another co-host, seems trapped in the middle. The off-air spat comes from other reports that Lemon is bossy and requires notes reminding him to shut up and let other people speak. The show is said not to have gone off smoothly (via NY Post):

Whoever was in charge on set should have had 'prima donna" escorted off the set and when they went back on air an empty seat would have been there. Butt, cnn and some gay black guy so guess where that would have gone......................

If Lemon were not black and gay he would have been fired months ago. Maybe he just doesn’t like getting up so early as it cuts into his evening ... activities.

Hire a guy like Lemon and it is then virtually impossible to fire him.

It's because he can no longer hit the New York City late-night scene with his morning show call at 5:00am.

The real reason he ripped into her? Because she is 30 years old and still has her looks. No one is meaner than an aging queen whose looks have faded.

I get the impression that most of CNN's tiny audience is conservative commentators looking for something to write about.
