The Don Lemon Show

Lemon LIVE at 5 | Mainstream Media BLOODBATH! - October 29th, 2025


Listen Later

It’s a bloodbath in mainstream media, and the numbers are brutal. CBS News is making sweeping cuts. NBC News is slashing jobs. Reporters, producers, and crews across the country are being shown the door in the name of “restructuring.”

So what does this mean for the future of journalism? Is mainstream media dying, or just selling out?
Because as outlets pivot toward right-wing narratives and bend the knee to Trump, it’s starting to look less like journalism and more like appeasement.

Chapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program. Chapter Advisory, LLC represents Medicare Advantage HMO, PPO, and PFFS organizations and stand alone prescription drug plans that have a Medicare contract. Enrollment depends on the plan's contract renewal. While we have a database of every Medicare plan nationwide and can help you to search among all plans, we have contracts with many but not all plans. As a result, we do not offer every plan available in your area. Currently we represent 50 organizations which offer 18,160 products nationwide. We search and recommend all plans, even those we don't directly offer. You can contact a licensed Chapter agent to find out the number of products available in your specific area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-Medicare, or your local State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) to get information on all of your options. Average potential savings are based on realized premium, co-pay, and out of pocket savings estimates self-reported by consumers that worked with Chapter Advisory LLC to enroll in a Medicare Supplement, Medicare Advantage, and/or Part D Prescription Drug Plan. The average is limited to consumers that chose to self-report. Savings information is subject to periodic updates and corrections. There is no guarantee of savings and any savings may vary by policy type, state, or other factors.
