Fox News’ “Outnumbered” Wednesday discussed Don Lemon’s now viral clip of a segment in which a British Royal commentator reacted to his question about slave trade reparations.
Lemon was shut down by Hillary Fordwich after he suggested that King Charles III spend his inherited wealth on “reparations for colonialism.”
“What an interesting discussion that is,” said contributor Raymond Arroyo. “Lemon didn’t expect the truth bomb to drop on him at that second.”
“England is facing rising costs of living,” Lemon said, “and you have those who are asking for reparations for colonialism … and some people want to be paid back and members of the public are wondering, why are we suffering when you have all this vast wealth? Those are legitimate concerns.”
FNC panelist Cheryl Casone accused CNN of discussing colonial reparations just hours after Queen Elizabeth II passed away.
“I mean really within an hour of her death, Christiane Amanpour started talking about reparations, at that moment. Obviously, somebody at that network is pushing that narrative and Don Lemon picked up on it,” Casone added.
