    A more effective strategy would be for black pundits to boycott his show.

    People really think 35,000 signatures are gonna get his ass off the air? Nope. Plus, even if it did, he'd probably have a new job at Faux News within a week anyway.

    I know fox "news" love them some ? . Even if he got a job over there it wont be anything close to having his own show.
    Think about how many people of color has their own shows over there.
    Now how many of em are ? and black?

    He prolly had to work hard to get where he is but he needs to be aware of the criticism hes getting and at least take em into consideration. Fox aint hiring that battybwoi.
    Dont know how u can b black in this country and still need ? wake up calls

    it's about sending a message. damn
    when cacs were showing up to Obama's rallies with guns in their arms, they wasn't gonna shoot a damn breeze, it was about sending a message.
    and say Don Lemon were to get fired , and Faux were to hire him. then we boycott watching empire, you'd think that Dom Lemmon is that valuable to them?

    again, ? are ages behind cacs in all things, besides sports n music.
    ? complain about marching, cool. they complain about progressive political theme music , they call it slave hymnals, cool. they complain about raging war, and fighting back, cool. then they complain about non aggressive approach such as disciplining ? , and wenches in their own communities ... wtf?

    what can ? do ?
    get ? , killed, incarerated, do drugs and
    turn up, turn up, turn up?

    Nah. Enough black people out of work. You don't like him then don't watch his show or give him any buzz. I don't like the ? therefore I ignore him. Why would you want to make a martyr of him anyway? ? backwards you just give him more ammo. CNN will fire him on their own when his show isn't doing well.

    ? Please !! Faux News would snatch him up with the quickness. Just so your monkey ass can sit and watch in glee

    Boycott Don Lemon and the entire CNN network because they're part of the problem as well.

    Boycott Rupert Murdoch and his companies, which include both foxnews and fox (That means that black folks have to stop watching 'Empire'.).

    Boycott Rush Limbaugh and the company that airs his show on the radio.

    Boycott ABC and the View until Raven is removed.

    That's what I'm talking bout..............

    Lemon is a cog in the machine doing what he is payed, told, and allowed. Same with Raven and those in their position. Get him off the show, they'll replace him with another.

    YouTube has black folks that counter this scattered across its site. It's definitely boycott able since it's replaceable already. Fox is as well... but if your gonna watch Empire and their movies, allowing your viewer rating to pay them, that's counter productive.

    even if it don't completely "work" and it gets a significant amount of signatures.... maybe it catches his/CNN attention and he will turn his stupid down... and stop trolling so much...

    for everyone who says petitions dont make a difference. this ? is currently on the front page of yahoo.com


    https://www.yahoo.com/tv/s/cnn-don-lemon-fired-change-org-petition-says-123249779.html

    A Change.org petition is calling for CNN’s Don Lemon to be fired afrer he called for more information before condemning a South Carolina senior deputy who tossed and dragged a black female student on the ground.

    The petition was born after Lemon criticized legal analyst Sunny Hostin for passing judgment on the deputy, Ben Fields, before knowing all the facts about what led to the incident.

    30,346 people have signed the petition, so far, with an ultimate goal of 35,000.

    “I’m disappointed that someone I used to look up to now is someone that I have trouble respecting as a journalist,” petition creator Jamell Henderson wrote. “Please join me in calling on CNN to remove Mr. Lemon from his role at the network.”

    Henderson went on to say Lemon has failed to do his job as a journalist.

    He seems to forget the true essence of journalism: to call the news how you see it and not judge, defame or antagonize. We, the people, want a journalist and an anchor that will not be afraid to accept the facts that are occurring within the African-American community and who will encourage our people the same way that person will encourage others across the board. We, the people, have no confidence in Mr. Lemon’s ability to do that. Therefore, we are asking CNN to remove him from his position.
