Former CNN anchor Don Lemon announced Tuesday that he will host a new show on X, nine months after being ousted from the cable news outlet.

Mr. Lemon, who was let go last April amid controversies including an on-air comment about Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley’s age, will use the social media platform to host “The Don Lemon Show” three times a week in 30-minute episodes discussing topics such as “politics, sports, culture, and entertainment.”
