Musk had given this no-talent DEI Queen and literal shit-stirrer a show on Twitter. He even sat down for an interview with LeMon to give him a big first-episode-launch. (Musk is among the most popular celebrities on social media.)
Don LeMon conducted a hit piece "interview" -- presumably to use for his highlight reel to attempt to get hired by MSNBC -- so Musk fired him and cancelled his show.
Why Musk gave this literal zero a show, I'll have no idea. Musk gets a lot of pressure from the leftwing DEI Regime to "prove he's not a racist." Maybe he was trying to get the left of his back.
Apparently Don LeMon began grilling Musk on leftwing claims that Musk uses the drug ketamine.

SCOOP: As I told him would happen, @donlemon
, the owner of this platform Elon Musk sent a terse text to his reps: "Contract terminated" after an interview Lemon did with Musk last Friday that was not to the adult toddler's liking, including questions about his ketamine use.
The much touted multi-million-dollar deal was a pricey effort to attract high profile media creators to X. Not so much when perpetually aggrieved billionaires in desperate need for constant affirmation run the place. So much for free speech.
I had told Don that this is exactly what would occur, including at a recent book tour event in NYC for my memoir, "Burn Book," he moderated, despite promises by Musk and CEO Linda Yaccarino -- who extravagantly touted this deal at CES to advertisers -- that this time was different.
So yeah, hiring the DEI Queen was an effort to prove "I'm not a racist" to advertisers who have been bullied into boycotting Twitter by leftwing pressure groups like Sleeping Giants, Media Matters, the ADL and SPLC.
Well, it's again clear who is actually in charge: A thin-skinned rich dude who operates via petty whims and exhausting grievances and who calls every fair question a hit piece. Who does that remind you of?
She then includes a gif of Trump.
By the way, if the name of this no-name stirs a vague memory: After a CBS reporter broke the wall of silence, before the 2020 elections, and said that John Fetterman had a very difficult time understanding and replying to her questions in an interview, Kara Swisher step forward to push the brazenly-false Democrat Narrative Lie that in her interview with Fetterman, Fetterman had no problems at all in communication, not a one!
I hope Musk has learned the lesson: the left will NEVER get off your back, and they cannot be appeased. Ever.
Twitter put out a statement saying that Musk was committed to free speech, and Don LeMon can post his stupid-ass hit piece on Twitter if he likes, but Twitter reserves the right to decide who they'll "partner" with and who they'll take on as employees.

Related: Mollie Hemingway says that George Stephanopolous should be forced to apologize, or preferably fired, for not only "rape-shaming" Nancy Mace, but for propagating the false Disinformation that Trump was "found liable for rape" ten times.
MOLLIE HEMINGWAY, FEDERALIST: It's not just George Stephanopoulos who messed up here, it's the entire production team at ABC News. It's fine that he is a former Democratic operative that now presents himself as a journalist but he was actually wrong on this fact. He said 10 times something that is false. He said that Trump was held liable for rape. That's just not true. He was wrong 10 times. That's not just a him problem, that is an everybody problem. At the very least, there needs to be more than apologies, there should be discipline and there should probably be firing.
The real story when it comes to the lawfare against Donald Trump is how the Democrat party has made it a campaign to create lawsuits up and down the eastern seaboard to go after their primary political opponent in an attempt to bankrupt and imprison him. That is Stalinist behavior. A real journalist would actually ask tough questions about that fascistic behavior and instead of applauding it, like George Stephanopoulos does, or lying about it there need to be repercussions here.
Making the same "mistake" ten times isn't a slip of the tongue -- it's a deliberate choice to repeat disinformation enough times that the lie becomes accepted as true.
