Ex-CNN host Don Lemon said Wednesday that “X” CEO Elon Musk refused to commercialize his new show on the platform.
Lemon announced the launching of his new show, “The Don Lemon Show,” on X and YouTube following his firing from CNN in April. Lemon claimed Musk chose to cancel its partnership with the show Wednesday which has “changed” his “relationship” with the tech mogul and the platform.
“Hi everyone. Elon Musk is mad at me, and I just put out a statement about what happened between him, me and the interview that he is apparently so upset about,” Lemon said in a video uploaded in the tweet. “But make no mistake about this. This is going to be my first episode of the Don Lemon Show this coming Monday March 18 so make sure you tune in. This does not change anything about the show except for my relationship with Elon and X. And there, there’s a whole lot that went down and I’m going to tell you about it in the coming days.”
