What do you do when your media acquisition hands you a Lemon? You make Lemon-aid, which is apparently what Chris Licht has done at CNN. Will that be to the taste of morning-show viewers, though? That’s only one of the big stories that Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson and I discuss in the latest episode of The Ed Morrissey Show podcast!

Today’s show features:

• Duane and I both heave a sigh of relief over the railroad deal that averted a catastrophic strike — at least so far. However, the economic realities have not changed for the rest of us, and may not even for the rail workers who have to ratify the deal.
• We wonder what Chris Licht is doing by making Don Lemon the morning-show anchor, and we have competing theories to explain it.
• We have the same opinion about Lindsey Graham’s strategy on abortion, though.
• What did Donald Trump tell Hugh Hewitt this morning — and how did it get received?
• Plus, a new development on the FBI and Russian “collusion” emerged as we spoke!
• Duane brings us up to date on the week’s top stories and gives us a preview of tomorrow’s Hugh Hewitt show.

The Ed Morrissey Show is now a fully downloadable and streamable show at  Spotify, Apple Podcasts, the TEMS Podcast YouTube channel, and on Rumble and our own in-house portal at the #TEMS page!
