CNN This Morning anchor Don Lemon and the network have 'parted ways,' the company announced Monday.
CNN fired longtime host Don Lemon on Monday following his short and disastrous run as a morning show host, a little over two months after he apologized for on-air comments about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley being past her prime.
Lemon issued a statement the same day saying he regretted his "inartful and irrelevant" comments. He was subsequently absent from the show for three days, returning the following week with a tweeted apology but no mention of the episode on air. He attracted negative attention last fall by saying that the U.S. men's soccer team should be paid more than the women's team, saying that the men were "more interesting to watch."
