'Late Show' host Stephen Colbert asks Lemon about CNN under new boss Chris Licht
Don Lemon attempted to dispel the notion that CNN was ever "liberal," as his new boss Chris Licht attempts to rescue the struggling network.
On Monday, "The Late Show" host Stephen Colbert asked Lemon about Licht, who previously served as the executive producer of the CBS late-night program before being tapped as CNN's CEO following the ousting of Jeff Zucker earlier this year.
"Word on the street is that you guys aren't allowed to be liberal anymore. Is that the case?" Colbert asked.
"I don't think we ever were liberal," Lemon responded.

Marxist? Yes.
Communist? Yes.
Authoritarian? Yes.
Bigoted? Yes.
Criminal? Yes.
But certainly not Liberal.
