Don Lemon’s Bizarre Subway Antics Spark Controversy Online

NEW YORK — Former CNN anchor Don Lemon‘s abrupt transition to creating online content has taken an unexpected turn, as he recently filmed himself engaging with subway passengers in an unusual bid for attention. Lemon, once a prominent figure in the news network, is now experimenting with viral content, sparking controversy across social media.

On a busy day in New York City’s subway, Lemon was seen showing random photos to commuters, attempting to elicit reactions for his latest videos. The odd approach has raised eyebrows, with many questioning the former journalist’s decision to adopt such a strategy.

“I wish I was making this up,” commented one observer. “Even Don Lemon shouldn’t hit embarrassing lows like this, but he did.” Observers noted a stark contrast between Lemon’s early career as a respected news figure and his current viral antics, which some have labeled as desperate.

A longtime television presence, Lemon’s journey with CNN came to an end earlier this year. He had been launched into the spotlight as a potential successor to lead newscasts, but recent changes at CNN saw his role diminish significantly. The sudden shift in his career trajectory left many in the industry shocked.

Critics have voiced concern for Lemon, questioning whether he has support from friends or advisors to steer his public persona in a more positive direction. “Does he have anyone in his life who can tell him that he shouldn’t ever go full cringe on the internet?” wrote one commentator.

Amidst these musings, social media users shared their views about the subway videos, describing them as “bizarre” and “unnecessary.” One viewer remarked, “The first video is by far the weirdest. The next two are just unnecessary and weird. Who runs around the subway showing people a random photo?”

As the conversation evolves, many are wondering what the future holds for Lemon and whether he will find a way to navigate his career back toward a more traditional journalistic path.

For those interested in sharing their thoughts, Lemon has been open to feedback via social media.
