Notoriously smug CNN host and Jussie Smollett supporter Don Lemon bashed Fox News yesterday, claiming that elite media comrade Jen Psaki should boot the vaguely conservative company from her press conferences, the Daily Wire reported.
CNN’s @donlemon: “Why does Jen Psaki continue to call on Fox in the briefing room?”
“Why should they be able to take part in a legitimate press briefing and legitimate journalism?”

According to the solemn Lemon, Fox has been too radical to be permitted any longer among the mainstream media.
He also called into question Fox’s journalistic integrity — a matter for which he has shown little zeal in the past.
“Why? Why does Jen Psaki even continue to call in Fox in the briefing room? … They’ve been very courteous and I should say, you know, kind,” he said.
“Because if your network is promoting b.s. and lies about what is actually happening in the country,” Lemon said, “and helping to inspire and incite an insurrection, why — why should they even be able to take part in a legitimate press briefing, and legitimate journalism?”
Lemon was joined by political propagandist L.E. Cupp, who proceeded to pile on Fox along with Lemon, claiming that Fox is no longer recognizable as a journalistic source.
“What is clear as day, Fox News viewers, you have been had,” Cupp shrilly blathered before suggesting that Fox has become Donald Trump’s propaganda wing.
“You have been told that the people you are watching we’re telling you not only the truth, but what they believed in the heart of hearts,” Cupp said. “They believed it passionately… There are no journalists left, you know, for the most part at Fox, and it is no longer a journalism enterprise. It is entertainment and worse, propaganda.”
