Last week, we told you about journalist Don Lemonโs shocking confession that he frequently gets approached by MAGA men trying to shoot their shot while reporting at Republican events across the country. While that admission definitely raised some eyebrows, Lemon just dropped another bomb on us that has the internet in a state of shock.
Suggested Reading
Lemon took time to respond to media personality Megyn Kelly โ something he says he doesnโt usually do โ for suggesting that heโs keeping their feud going just to get eyeballs. In a February 26 podcast post, Lemon says someone needs to hold up a mirror to the woman, who seemingly gets joy out of dragging other women. At the end of his monologue was a mic drop moment, in which he implied that things in Kellyโs relationship with her husband might not be what they seem.
โDeal with your own house Megyn,โ Lemon said to Kelly on his podcast. โAnd by the way, tell your husband to stop looking at my husband across the room. Itโs weird, okay.โ
In case you havenโt been keeping up, Lemon has been making it plain about how he feels about conservative media personality Megyn Kelly, after she laughed at Joy Reid after her MSNBC show โThe Reid Outโ was canceled, calling her โthe absolute worst person on television.โ
โSo let me just say to Megyn Kelly, in my 30-some years as a journalist and my 50-some years as a person of color: Go f**k yourself. Okay?โ Lemon said on an episode of his podcast. Lemon added an exclamation point by taking a sip from a โMegyn Kelly Todayโ mug, throwing some not-so-subtle shade at her canceled NBC talk show.
As you can probably imagine, Lemonโs shots at Kelly are receiving mixed reactions online. Some are loving all of the deliciously messy controversy Lemon is stirring up hoping heโll share even more.
โDon said donโt come for me unless I send for you!!! Yesssss,โ wrote someone in the comments of his post.
Other commenters added how much they love the new no-holds-barred Lemon,ย who has zero fโs to give because he doesnโt have to worry about repercussions from a big network boss.
โI think your work is better since leaving CNN. I feel like you have been let loose. It is inspiring. Thank you for being you!โย wrote someone else.
But others think Donโs comments arenโt cool and are an attempt for him to keep his name in the news.
โCanโt believe Don actually said that. He must be so desperate to stay relevant. Wow!โ wrote someone on Instagram.
Damn, Don we didnโt know you could get down like that.
