I am sure that Lemon can post on X.
Elon just decided he didn't want to do business with Lemon. That is not censorship.

[ronbelanger]

So Elon Musk not willing to pay Don Lemon to do a show on x is wrong?

[hom-sha-bom]

Free speech doesn't mean anyone is obligated to pay for your speech.

[davemustang]

It's a private company, remember?
Where was the outrage when Jack banned Trump? Exactly

[stevenh]

You have missed something here. Lemon hasn't been cancelled from X. He can post what he wants, no censorship.

[sharpe]

All 3 of Lemons fans are sobbing in their Lacey handkerchiefs.

Don Lemon's show wasn't canceled. He wasn't removed or banned from X. Elon just thought better than to partner with him. Don is still free to do his show however he wants. Just without Elon's money.

[miroslavm]

No normal person would ever do any business with that Lemon Demon.

[chrismakoundoul]

X doesn't have to pay for a gossiping channel!
Don Lemon is free to release his material on X but why should X pay for it?

[erica]

Let's get this str8, he is not banned on X. He just got the door slammed on him that he's not qualified to be a journalist. There's nothing abt this that's abt free speech. Emotional manboy.

Musk is not obligated to pay Lemon. He’s still free to post his content on X. He was lucky to have the contract. He squandered it by acting like a typical MSM journalist trying to do a gotcha.

[michaelmblog]

It sounds like Don Lemon needs to go build his own X if he doesn't like it.

[jreeves]

The end of a business relationship does not equate to censorship. Censorship equates to censorship.

[alexymaldonadoo]

Lemon loved when they cancelled trump.. but it's bad when it happens to them lol

[missionmarc]

He canceled the partnership but don lemon is allowed on X so what’s the problem ?

[kennithlambert]

Lemon should know that you don't insult your boss unless you plan on quitting or getting fired.

[theortric]

It’s crazy that you two aren’t discussing the fact that Don showed a huge lack of social awareness. CNN fired Don and Don decided to essentially do a hit piece on the guy who gives him a new opportunity. You two Don’t think that’s an issue???

[Geo-fxmn]

Elon didn't ban him from X, or take away his free speech in any way. He chose to not involve himself personally or financially with someone who's only intention was to make Elon look bad. These two are both drama queens

[shadhinoiyo]

Did he get banned? How is it against free speech?

[Kneumann]

So Don is actually more concerned about the money going into his pocket than he is about free speech. That's the short summary.
