Don Lemon Returns with New Media Company

First Project Announced

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon is returning to the media landscape with a new media company and its first project.

Lemon, who hosted CNN's "Don Lemon Tonight" until it was canceled earlier this year, recently settled a dispute over his exit from the network.

The new media company, as yet unnamed, will focus on producing content that "inspires, informs, and empowers," according to Lemon.

The first project for the company will be a docuseries about Lemon's own journey in the media industry.

Lemon has been a controversial figure in recent years, most notably for comments he made about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley.

However, he remains a popular figure among many viewers, and his new venture is likely to generate significant interest.
