Former cable news anchor Don Lemon has been offered a job in the fast food industry after his unexpected firing from CNN.
Lemon lost his job at CNN on Monday amid controversies over his behavior, both on and off the air. In February, Lemon faced backlash after saying that 51-year-old Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley was no longer “in her prime.” Variety reported in early April that Lemon had verbally abused multiple colleagues and dated a CNN staffer who was nearly 20 years his junior.
On Wednesday, Lemon engaged GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy in a racially charged on-air argument that reportedly also played a role in his firing.
