CNN's Don Lemon shocks viewers with surprise announcement
SalonCNN Anchor Don Lemon promised "changes are coming" during an unexpected end-of show monologue Friday evening announcing that his nearly 7-year-run as host of "CNN Tonight" was coming to an end. But the pressure to reveal what "changes" he was referring to was too great over the weekend, and Lemon put out another statement Saturday clarifying what exactly his future at CNN entailed — a new name for his show, "Don Lemon Tonight." Just this week, Lemon and fellow anchor Chris Cuomo also announced their own CNN side-project, a podcast called "The Handoff" to be hosted on Apple Podcasts. According to CNN, the show got its name from the casual conversations that arose between the two hosts as the network transitions from "Cuomo Prime Time" to Don Lemon's now apparently defunct "CNN Tonight with Don Lemon."
