Tensions on the set of “CNN This Morning” have recently boiled over, with Don Lemon allegedly “screaming” at co-host Kaitlan Collins off-camera during an ugly December incident that has left the cast and crew rattled ever since, The Post has learned.
According to two sources with knowledge of the situation, the 56-year-old Lemon approached 30-year-old Collins following the show’s Thursday Dec. 8 broadcast — and unloaded on her in front of staffers as he accused her of “interrupting” him on air.
“Don screamed at Kaitlan, who was visibly upset and ran out of the studio,” one source with knowledge of the skrimish said.

The crew shouldn't take it personally, Don and his boy friend probably had a spat the night before.

Giving way to every whim and emotion and verbalizing or otherwise dramatically demonstrating each and every sentiment, inclination, or nervous reaction is the product of years of self-indulgence.
The mindset behind such conduct is that no matter how appalling one’s conduct— like appearing on a national telecast while intoxicated, just to take a random example— to deny oneself any gratification is unnecessary and deeply unfair.
Now for some broadcast newsman perspective on this, “dust up,” while I ended up with a kind of tarnished admiration for Walter Cronkite after his pacifist advocacy during and after Tet, his history online describes his flying on bombing raids over Germany in a B-17, firing a machine gun at a German fighter and landing in a glider with the 101st Airborne Division. He covered the Battle of the Bulge, the Nuremberg trials, and served as UPIs man in Moscow from 1946 to 1948.
If I recall correctly Mr. Cronkite did deviate
from professional stoicism when after a long morning he reported President Kennedy’s death.
At that moment Cronkite removed his glasses and his voice caught a bit.
Mr. Lemon, on the other hand, flew into a rage in the studio, in front of the crew, shouting at his co-anchor, a young woman, because he thought she interrupted him.
An observation, one seeming arc of the character of broadcast newsmen, and what the broader culture, and that of newsrooms, will tolerate.

Don is upset that he is no longer viewed as a CNN star. Just one of many talking heads.

Don the Lemmon is leaving a sour taste in everyone's mouth. The little diva just can't get over losing his solo act and turn out to not be a very good team player. Mr Grumpy Pants will soon find himself out of a job.

I haven't watched CNN since 1998. But I still think they should've fired Drama Queen Donna Extra Sweet Lemon-ade when Fredo Cuomo got the boot.

Oh, little Donnie the Lemon got upset and throws a hissy fit. Does anybody really watch his show. Didn't think so.

Seems to me the only reason that Lemon has not been fired for this and previous unprofessional behavior is that he's black +homosexual. In my all of my work experience, this kind of behavior gets you escorted to the door.

Throw this aging gay boy off the set, you might increase your ratings and he will have more time to accost other men!
