In a recent interview for the Fox News docuseries “Sharon Osbourne: To Hell and Back,” former co-host of “The Talk” and wife of rock star Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne, criticized Don Lemon and Joy Behar. Osbourne accused Lemon of not seeking her side of the story before publicly lambasting her on race following her termination from “The Talk.” She had been fired after standing up for Piers Morgan, who was accused of racism.
Osbourne had previously been a fan of Lemon, particularly enjoying his work on the New Year’s Eve show. However, his behavior in this instance changed her opinion of him. She criticized Lemon for not fulfilling his journalistic duty of getting both sides of the story before reporting on it. Additionally, Osbourne shared an anecdote about Behar insulting her wedding ring at a social function.
Osbourne expressed her discontent with cancel culture and CBS’ denial of responsibility for her firing. She pointed out that Behar still has a job on “The View,” while Lemon was recently demoted by CNN, as the network aims to return to reporting real news instead of relying on opinions from talking heads.
On another occasion, CNN host Don Lemon engaged in an argument with Scott Jennings regarding former President Donald Trump and his supporters. Lemon criticized Republicans who defended Trump’s behavior during his time in office, accusing them of being hysterical about one statement made by current President Joe Biden while ignoring Trump’s daily derogatory comments about various individuals and groups, including other presidents and members of his own party.
Shortly after the interview, CNN removed Lemon from its prime time lineup, which had been trailing behind Fox News Channel. This incident highlights the importance of journalistic integrity and the responsibility of the media to report facts accurately and fairly.
