The former anchor seems to blame his ouster on conflicting principles, rather than a series of controversies.
. According to the report, which catalogued allegedly hostile encounters with female colleagues going back to 2008, Lemon once threatened a co-worker who got an assignment in Iraq that he wanted. He reportedly called a producer fat and openly mocked a co-host — in both cases right to the woman’s face.
“After 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would’ve had the decency to tell me directly,” he wrote. “At no time was I ever given any indication that I would not be able to continue to do the work I loved at the network. It is clear that there are some larger issues at play. With that said, I want to thank my colleagues and the many teams I have worked with for an incredible run. They are the most talented journalists in the business, and I wish them all the best.
