CNN Tonight host Don Lemon stirred up controversy after holding up a sign with the n-word written on it, and he asked viewers if they were offended by the word. The host was trying to spark conversation about President Obama using the n-word on the WTF podcast, and many viewers spoke out in protest online. 

One story popped up on NewsWatch33 that claimed that Lemon was fired from CNN over the n-word sign, but VladTV reached out to a rep for CNN Tonight, who revealed the story "is not accurate."
