Elon Musk cancels Don Lemon show on X after interview with mogul
“He informed me of his decision hours after an interview I conducted with him on Friday,” the former CNN anchorDon Lemon says having own show is ‘unnerving’ after CNN, but, ‘I don’t have to worry about getting in trouble’Lemon, 58, shared that he initially agreed to a partnership with Musk, 52, because he had been told that X was a “digital town square” with freedom of speech and no censorship.
Lemon said when he sat down with Musk last Friday there were “no restrictions” and the Tesla co-founder agreed to his “respectful and wide ranging questions,” from SpaceX to the presidential election.“We had a good conversation,” the acclaimed journalist said. “Clearly he felt differently. His commitment to a global town square where all questions can be asked and all ideas can be shared seems not to include questions of him from people like me.
He added, however, that any financial ties with the footage will not exist, noting “like any enterprise, we reserve the right to make decisions about our business partnerships, and after careful consideration, X decided not to enter into a commercial partnership with the show.
