Don Lemon’s star has been on the rise at CNN the last couple of years, and they’re giving him another shot at primetime with a weekly Monday night show that starts tomorrow night. So I invited him to join me on America Weekend to talk about the show, and some stories that have made news in the last week, including:

  • His recent comments about President Obama’s finally becoming “The Black President”;
  • Liz Wahl quitting the Russia Today network after realizing it was a propaganda outlet;
  • Whether he’s had disagreements with CNN management about which stories to cover;
  • What’s next for the anti-gay “religious freedom” laws across the country.

Listen to our conversation here.
