CNN's Don Lemon 'Schooled' By Hip-Hop Star
/CNN's Don "It's all about me" Lemon got a little surprise when he interviewed Talib Kweli in Ferguson. Lemon asked the rapper why he chose to go to Ferguson and participate in protests?
Kweli said the media was doing a horrible job of making sure the stories get out in the right way.
Then the interview went south and the two started arguing about who greeted whom:
KWELI: Let me explain something. I would listen to you if you had the decency—let me finish—if you had the decency to greet me.
LEMON: I do have the decency. I invited you to come on CNN.
KWELI: Let me tell you what happened. You didn't invite me. Nicole invited me, first of all. You came up—you didn't even say nothing to me. You were on your phone the whole time. You asked how to pronounce my name. You have no respect for who I am.
All of this on Network TV. I'm sure Walter Cronkite is spinning.
