Don Lemon—-
I don’t know what is going on with the man BUT I suggested that his move to a morning slot was a calculated move. The CEO-Chris Licht-is positioning CNN more to the right of the political spectrum-FOX light. It is my speculation that instead of firing Don they opted to move him to the morning slot and when the ratings were not what they want them to be they can fire him. Now the self-sabotage is a new wrinkle. I read it is Don’s intent to get fired and jump to MSNBC.
A little messy I say.
