Lemon is a diva.. I couldn't watch him talk down to people anymore.

[salmaal-shaoily]

That shows you these 'competitive' networks are actually working together.... just like the political parties!

[SamuelAllen-nxmw]

"people say", "I think the company says", "its been stated", "I think...." At what point will CABLE NEWS be acknowledged as Entertainment Media?

Carson had 4 million viewers....Tuck gonna be A OK

[bobojames]

She sounds really jealous. Tucker Carlson will be ok I bet😂😂😂

[debrajohnson]

After his woman comment Lemon was surprised he was fired.

[amclights]

Maybe MSNBC should hire him. Apparently he'll say whatever he's told to regardless of what he thinks.

[sandhyarao]

How he feels uncomfortable to speak about Lemon but goes on and on about Tucker speaks volume that this media outlet is agenda driven.

[claudiavaldes]

wonder if the commentators thought about how they too might one day be on the receiving end of a 'you're fired'.

[kmcc]

So, Tucker is the one that is “unhinged” and Lemon is the one treated unfairly???? I don’t get these people…

[lynyrdblackfoot]

Barely mentioned Don Lemon being fired, but really focused on Tucker Carlson leaving.

[JStorm]

Let's call Carlson's exit for what it is. He was fired. Plains and simple.

[aaronwoods]

He had more viewers in a one hour segment than you have an a 24 hour day.

[LoveBunnysfun]

Unfollowed Fox If they can get rid of him we can get rid of them, and today if you say you are Democrat or Republican it comes clear when you act based on actions or words, that you lied.

[jensvoiceforyou]

This isn’t news but speculation. So much nothing

[dragondad]

Other that speculation, can we really trust and network reporting? Pay attention to the words these reporters use.

[ronleight]

Can newsmax or oan afford tucky? We will soon find out, where else could he go??

[yg-lcll]

What goes around comes around. No one is protected by this unstable place we live!
