Nah, We're Good: Hack Don Lemon Thinks Matt Lauer Can Make A Comeback Because The Public Misses Him

Posted • January 24, 2025: This writer confesses she forgot Matt Lauer was even a thing, and had to do a quick Google search as to why he left NBC News (egads, Matt). But Don Lemon, who clearly has his elbow on the pulse of the current state of media, thinks the serial sexual harasser is poised to make a comeback in 2025. Because that's what NBC News needs right now. Or something. -- Fox News @FoxNews: “Don Lemon believes disgraced NBC host Matt Lauer can make a comeback: 'The public misses him'.” —— “Ex-CNN host Don Lemon thinks former "Today" host Matt Lauer can come back after his 2017 sexual assault allegation scandal. 'Whenever I see Matt out and about or even with if we go out to dinner - my husband and I go out to dinner with him and his fiancée - people love him,' Lemon said on the "Hollywood Raw" podcast Wednesday. 'Women love him. They're like, ‘Man - oh, my God - can I get a picture? I love you. I miss you on television. Blah blah blah.’'”

“He added, 'I think the public loves him, the public misses him, but it's just the - it's the people inside the business who are afraid.'” —— Remember: Don Lemon did not one but two man-on-the-street segments where he was utterly shocked that voters (and specifically women) were not keen on Kamala. So forgive us if we're skeptical that he knows what the public does and does not love. Matt Lauer could be standing in this writer's kitchen right now and she'd have no idea who he was. People are not coming up to him in public. We all know that's where this is headed, right? "… Oh and if you let Matt back in, how about me too?" -- Yep. Kinda like the public misses Don Lemon. It's like when you have a hemorrhoid removed and you sit down for the first time. You're expecting discomfort but it's just not there anymore. The public does not, in fact, miss him. He was fired almost eight years ago. No one started a 'Bring Back Matt!' campaign in those intervening years. Because no one cares.

The same guy who insists that Trump is a rapist thinks that the American people want…Matt Lauer? How does that work? That's (D)ifferent. —— "The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant, it's just they know so much that isn't true." —— This may come as a surprise to Don Lemon, but neither he NOR Matt Lauer are missed.
