Don Lemon Praised For Saying Men Sports Make More Money & Should Always Get Paid More Than Women
CNN's analyst Don Lemon argued that the U.S. men's national soccer team should get paid more than the women's team despite their lack of success. He even went as far as saying to his female co-hosts Poppy Harlow and Kaitlin Collins that the men are simply «more interesting to watch.» That was a bold move of you sir.
Well, as you could guess, people were conflicted on Twitter following his remarks. Here are a few arguments from both sides of the debate.
