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.

The BBC's programming might be center left at times but the news has been cast from a center right perspective for at least 14 years. David Cameron installed conservative management back in 2010 that's why we ended up with the likes of Laura Kuenssberg and Fiona Bruce giving their political output a good old Tory stir.

Almost everything is marked left on this site. I believe it's a tool to shift the Overton window further right.

It's very tedious.
