He shares his experiences working his way up in journalism, his decision to come out publicly as gay, and the impact of significant events like the George Floyd protests on his work. The conversation touches on Don's latest book, his perspectives on modern journalism, and his transition to independent media…and what’s “next” for Don Lemon.  SHOW HIGHLIGHTS02:24 Don Lemon's Background and Career07:20 Writing and Publishing Books12:27 Reflections on Journalism and Media20:18 Life After CNN28:42 The Don Lemon Show and Independent Media37:38 Navigating the Competitive Media Landscape40:47 Maintaining Integrity in Independent Media49:59 Personal Journey and Faith51:55 Coming Out and Family Support54:14 Facing Public and Professional Challenges01:02:14 The Seven QuestionsListen and subscribe on your favorite podcast app.  Also, check out the show and sign up for the newsletter at  www.storyandcraftpod.com...#podcast #DonLemon #Author #CNN #Journalist #Journalism #IOnceWasLost #LGBTQ #storyandcraft
