The CNN anchor, Don Lemon was roasted on social media, yet again for his reporting on the Ferguson decision. Lemon was describing the scene from outside the Ferguson police station last night, just moments after the announcement that police officer Darren Wilson would not be indicted for killing unarmed teenager Michael Brown.
While speaking with Anderson Cooper, Lemon reported hearing the sounds of gunfire and saw protesters jumping on cars.
And then he said…….
“Obviously, there is the smell of marijuana in the air.”
…and then Twitter reacted:
Anderson Cooper/ CNN reporters putting this is perspective “almost everyone is peaceful”.. Don lemon “obviously I smell Marijuana ” wtf
