CNN’S DON LEMON ANGERS NRA FOR COMMENT ON COSBY RAPE ACCUSER

imageAtlanta, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles) – CNN’s controversial anchor Don Lemon is in hot water yet again, this time with the National Rifle Association (NRA).

NRA, the powerful gun lobbyist, is taking Lemon to task for his comments while interviewing Joan Tarshis, one of the women accusing Bill Cosby of rape.

During the live news segment, Lemon suggested that Tarshis could have prevented the alleged rape had she used her weapon during forced oral sex. Lemon was, of course, referring to Tarshis’ teeth.

The comment didn’t sit well with the NRA, accusing Lemon of being a paid spokesperson for anti-gun advocates. “Lemon’s comment could only diminish our argument that citizens need guns to protect themselves from evil elements, including rapists,” an NRA spokesperson said.  The NRA demanded that Lemon retract his comments immediately.

Meanwhile, the American Dental Association has decided to honor Lemon with a lifetime achievement award for the same comments he made about teeth as a weapon.

Here is a transcript of Lemon’s interview with Tarshis:
