X - Elon Musk Declines Minimum Payments To Ex-CNN Host Don Lemon On X Because All He Wants To Do Is 'Rehash The Dying CNN Business Model' | Benzinga
Elon Musk has announced that former CNN host Don Lemon will not be receiving guaranteed minimum payments for monetizing on his platform, X, formerly Twitter.
What Happened: On Wednesday, an X account, which goes by the name, X News Daily, on the platform expressed concerns about the termination of a deal with Lemon, saying that it could tarnish the X’s reputation and future as a creator platform.
“Now If Don Lemon can still monetize videos on X via the amplify program like MrBeast, X should clarify that and let creators know that only the special/exclusive partnership was canceled, ” X News Daily stated, adding, “But ending collaborations because a creator criticizes the platform is not a good look.”
