    I think this was the same episode that had the long interview with Juan Williams. I had had no idea that his whole ‘when I see someone dressed as a Muslim on the airplane I get nervous’ was followed by a whole bit about how it’s not acceptable to act based on those gut reactions. Wow, NPR really did wimp out and screw him over.

    How dare Don Lemon demand professionalism in this workplace!  Oh, Stephen Colbert made a reference to this in this clip. http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/393272/july-27-2011/difference-makers—patrick-rodgers

    ^ What a great clip!  Dan Rather was in it, too. XD

    It seems their laughing at CNN’s filler-fluff-feel-good stories, rather than Don Lemon. I mean, him preferring the interesting stories with actual impact on the world is a good thing from somebody who works at a news station.

    Watching this one would hope he’d get to do more of that stuff, less the fluff pieces. But I guess with 24 hours of news to fill..

    It does seem a bit prickish to be bitching to his colleagues on air rather than to his editors, though.
