Don Lemon might be able to make a return to CNN after the firing of former CEO Chris Licht … as folks in Don’s world would not be surprised if the network reaches out in the near future.
Sources familiar tell TMZ … the potential reversal of fortune wouldn’t be shocking due to the well-documented and long-standing tensions between Chris and Don.
As we reported, Chris took over as CNN’s head honcho in May 2022 and clashed with Don many times about things Don said on-air, as well as an outfit choice Don made for the premiere of “CNN This Morning.”
You’ll recall, Don claimed he was completely blindsided by his April termination after 17 years with CNN, coyly saying … “It is clear that there are some larger issues at play.”
