CNN This Moring co-host Don Lemon travelled over to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to promote the show and insist that “I don’t think we were liberal” when speaking about the pre-Chris Licht era.
Colbert asked about changes to the network under Licht, “The word on the street is you guys aren’t allowed to be liberal anymore? Is that the case?”
Lemon laughably argued that, “I don’t think we ever were liberal.” After a somewhat surprised Colbert replied with a simple “What?,” Lemon doubled down, “Yes, I don’t think we ever were liberal.”
