Don Lemon sues Elon Musk and X over abrupt end of content deal
Lemon was set to host exclusive content on X when he launched a new show earlier this year, but Musk abruptly canceled the partnership after conducting a sometimes contentious interview with the former CNN host. According to the complaint, filed in federal court in San Francisco, Musk texted Lemon’s agent “contract is canceled.”
"This case is simple. X executives used Don to bolster their advertising sales pitch, then canceled their partnership and dragged Don's name through the mud," Lemon's attorney, Carney Shegerian, said in a statement. "It doesn't take a genius to see the fraud, negligence and reputational damage here."
