The Thing About Don Lemon

 I'm just not a fan of CNN (or former ex-company CNN) journalist Don Lemon.

On interview skills?  I can think of forty journalists (even Katie Couric) who are better at Q-and-A.

On debate skills?  One-to-ten....he's marginally a '2'.

Why CNN sticks to him?  I think he's moderately priced on salary.  

I get the impression that even among blacks....he's just not ranked up there.

Intellectual?  No.

Starting his own podcast gimmick?  No.....he's not like Tucker Carlson or the normal folks you'd see.

But here's the thing...Don has no plan 'B' or exit strategy.  He has no real back-up job to CNN.  No one else cares that much to hire Don (not even ABC).
