Piers Morgan slams ex-CNN host in fiery cancel culture debate.
Piers Morgan and former CNN host Don Lemon had a heated exchange during an interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored. The conversation initially focused on free speech and reactions to the recent death of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, remaining civil for the first 15 minutes.
Tensions escalated when Morgan questioned Lemon about being a victim of cancel culture following his departure from CNN in April 2023. Lemon acknowledged feeling targeted by cancel culture. The discussion intensified when Morgan played a clip of Lemon making controversial remarks about Nikki Haley and questioned his choice of words.
The interview took a confrontational turn as both men began shouting at each other. Morgan accused Lemon of being disrespectful, while Lemon expressed disappointment in the direction of the conversation. Despite the escalating tension, they eventually moved on to discuss other topics like gun laws.
Following the interview, Morgan expressed confusion over Lemon's behavior and criticized him on social media. Lemon, in turn, expressed regret over the lack of a productive conversation and accused Morgan of seeking clickbait moments. The exchange between the two continued on social media platforms after the interview.
