Lol I actually agree with don the lemon on one thing. As stupid and embarrasing of a race baiter he is, it's strange that he got fired over this, just carrying out his masters playbook. Note that shrillary, al sharpton, obummer, and pretty much every demonrat operative are allowed to spout the same bullshit race baiting nonsense without repercussions. Don the lemon indeed was only a little negro pawn. He probably never realized that until his firing by his masters.

He's too stupid. He should have known better. Cratering ratings for his show and the entire network. There are independent content creators that double what he gets in a week. Hell individuals on Youtube get more than the entire CNN network in a week. The ship is sinking. No different than print newspapers 20-30 years ago.
All the popular anchors and talking heads are going to have to start their own content creator networks or join the mid sized ones. The major networks will exist, but I think the days of 7-8 figure salaries is toast. It will be $300-600k. The hot weather girl will make more than lead anchors.

The supposed reason he got fired, the official reason he was fired, is not why he was fired.
Lemon was no longer an effective propagandist, that's why he was fired. He was a liar, he distorted information, he was dishonest - THAT is why he was hired, the problem is, nobody listened to him anymore, nobody believed him. He was therefore worthless. Nobody paid attention to him. People still listen to that asshole Rachael Maddow, she's fine, although she's a compulsive liar. As long as people pay attention...
Tucker Carlson was an EFFECTIVE propagandist, but he wasn't producing the propaganda that the state wanted, that is a problem too, although he was very milquetoast in doing it. He was questioning the current authority in the most mild way possible, so he had to go.
Either be an effective liar, or you're out. That is Western media now. We have Izvestia and Pravda in the West now. That's the ONLY thing allowed in "mainstream news". Either lie effectively and convincingly, or you're out. It's as simple as that.
People hunger for truth, and Tucker Carlson was dipping his toe into some minimal amount of truth, and that's just too dangerous - so he's out. He never went into the lake of information. He just SLIGHTLY told the truth. Not allowed.

Poor Don. He thought because he was black and gay, he was virtually untouchable. Perhaps he'll reinvent himself and come back wearing a dress?

Are you surprised he was hired because because he was a black man (minority) who is gay (minority) turns out to be a fucking liar? The thinking is that despite all the supposed blocks to climbing up, being a double minority, he must be incredible. Because, journalists tell the truth right? The most honest and accurate journalist MUST climb to the top, RIGHT? That's the thinking of the average American.
That's the same for Rachael Maddow, a Jewish lesbian although most people don't know she's Jewish, but they all know she's lesbian. I mean, a minority group wouldn't attack minority groups would they, they must have integrity... That's the current scam.
The truth is, the most grovelling pig climbs to the top in "journalism". It's very easy, just sell your soul. The real job of journalism is to sell any fucking war, and support any fucking policy of the government. That's all it is. It's easy, but you'll lose your soul.

They're nothing but actors reading a script, no difference.
A few years ago, I had some very credible inside information regarding kick backs, bribes, over charges, etc. regarding the construction of a minor league baseball stadium in a relatively small town. A new journalist was covering the project, so, on a whim, I sent him an email that included some info that caught his interest. To my surprise, he called me. The first thing he said was "I get a lot of emails that are a waste of time. Your's obviously is not. Tell me what you know." We had a long conversation and he was blown away with all that I knew. Near the end of our phone call, I told him "you'll never be able to print any of this, because your editor won't allow it." Sure enough, he didn't. Not a word ever appeared in the newspaper. I never heard from him again, and, not long after that, he left the paper.
Years later, when the city began having financial problems due entirely to the stadium, people began asking too many questions, which pressured law enforcement to conduct investigations. Eventually, the Mayor was found guilty of accepting bribes, accepted a plea deal and was given a small slap on the wrist. He served about 90 days and then 'retired' to sunny Florida.

I've been a whistleblower too.
Blow the whistle, provide the evidence, keep head down and disappear.
The problem today is even if you blow the whistle, nothing fucking happens.
I've sunk a company involved with intellectual theft, it didn't harm me, and they fucking deserved it. They were thieves.
People don't understand the purpose of anonymity. The primary company I sank because of intellectual theft, would be able to destroy me today and that company deserved to burn. Those assholes were thieves but nobody could tell it based on just the binary code, without a lot of effort. I was directly involved.
You might criticize me for this, but the company I blew the whistle on, were thieves. Just common criminals.
