Don Lemon's team is firing back at a report alleging that the CNN anchor has a history of misogynistic actions, "diva-like behavior" and more on the job, labeling those claims as "patently false anecdotes."
The veteran news anchor was the subject of a scathing Wednesday report by Variety, which said it had compiled accounts from more than a dozen of Lemon's former and current colleagues who "painted a picture of a journalist who flouted rules and cozied up to power all while displaying open hostility to many female co-workers."
The report also alleged that the 57-year-old newsman, who has survived CNN's regime changes, repeatedly charmed his way "out of facing any meaningful consequences."
