Former CNN star presenter Don Lemon has sued multi-billionaire Elon Musk and his social media company X, formerly known as Twitter, over the cancellation of a talk show deal.
The lawsuit alleges that Mr Musk and his company unfairly terminated a partnership with Mr Lemon and refused to pay him after using his name to promote the social media platform with advertisers.
Earlier this year, X reached deals with Mr Lemon, former US congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard and sports radio presenter Jim Rome, as it tries to bring advertisers back to the platform after a series of controversies.
“The lawsuit alleges fraud, negligent misrepresentation, and misappropriation of name and likeness,” said a post on the Facebook page of the law firm representing Mr Lemon, Shegerian & Associates.
Also, I think the partnership was cancelled due to him doing an unfavorable interview with musk and posting it to twitter.
That means he was fired from his job over something he said on twitter which means Elon has promised to pay for the lawsuit.
Has he paid anyone’s legal bills yet?
