In an interview with The New York times , CNN’s weekend primetime anchor 45-years old Don Lemon has finally come out of the closet and revealed to the world that he is Gay.
While promoting his new book, Transparent, Lemon says that admitting his sexuality poses great risks for his career.

Things that make you go hmm!
MY TAKE
Does it mean that if you were sexually molested as a child you automatically become gay in adulthood? Is being Gay a lifestyle now? How can I trust that Don Lemon has been given me unbiased news all these years if he was a closeted gay? Just saying.

CLEVELAND, TX — Thirteen adults and five juveniles have been arrested as part of an investigation into the alleged rape of an 11-year old girl.
Darrell Broussard, assistant police chief for the Cleveland, Texas, Police Department, said Monday that the investigation into the incident “is continuous,” with more significant developments possible.
Cleveland is about 50 miles northeast of Houston.
“There have been leads during our investigation that have alerted us to other possible persons of interest,” Broussard said. “The investigation is ongoing.” The assistant chief said that the 18 individuals charged thus far are between 14 and 27 years old.
On Friday, the Cleveland Police Department announced that four students in the Cleveland Independent School District had been arrested on charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child under 14.
They appeared Monday in a Liberty County court, in the town of Liberty, to face the charges.
Mike Little, the district attorney in Liberty County, said police would likely decide whether more people would be charged. He offered few other details, saying, “We are very careful about pretrial publicity.”
The incident allegedly happened late last year in Cleveland, and the case has sharply divided the community, according to CNN affiliate KHOU, which reported that the girl was 11 years old.
“It just seems like a dream,” said a Cleveland resident who told reporters her 20-year-old son is among those accused.

MY TAKE
Poor child! The trauma on her life Lord. Still I hope the investigation is carried out thoroughly so that innocent children do not end up in jail.

For CNN fans and the American population, Larry King can arguably be considered as part of America’s heritage. His Tv show ‘Larry King Live’ has been broadcast on CNN for the past 25 years. During that time, Mr. King has recorded more than 6,000 shows with some very high-profile guests, ranging from J.F Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Marlon Brando to George Bush Sr, Paris Hilton and Barack Obama.
Yesterday, 16th of December 2010 heralded the final episode of CNN’s ‘Larry King Live’ show.

Among the stream of well-wishers that filled his final show, were two US presidents; former president Bill Clinton and current Barack Obama.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger even proclaimed last thursday ‘Larry King Day’

His wife Shannon and son, Chase and Cannon joined in saying goodbye.

British Talk show host Piers Morgan will take over Larry King’s coveted time slot in January.

Even though I am not a CNN fan, I must admit Larry King Live is one of the only shows I stop by to watch while flipping through channels. Good luck Larry King, time to play ‘papa.’
