THIS IS CNN: Don Lemon goes berserker on Kaitlan Collins

    Don lost his primetime gig and might get booted from mornings with Kaitlan and Poppy.

    Tensions on the set of “CNN This Morning” have recently boiled over, with Don Lemon allegedly “screaming” at co-host Kaitlan Collins off-camera during an ugly December incident that has left the cast and crew rattled ever since, The Post has learned.

    According to two sources with knowledge of the situation, the 56-year-old Lemon approached 30-year-old Collins following the show’s Thursday Dec. 8 broadcast — and unloaded on her in front of staffers as he accused her of “interrupting” him on air.

    “Don screamed at Kaitlan, who was visibly upset and ran out of the studio,” one source with knowledge of the skrimish said. News of the explosive incident made its way up to CNN CEO Chris Licht, who is said to have been appalled by Lemon’s behavior, according to a source.

    A second source said a producer talked to Lemon at the behest of Licht and told the anchor to take the next day off to “cool off.”

    I've watched this a few times and it struggles. And the background is way too busy.

    Anonymous sources say: Interesting how much of this 'coverage' is being driven by conservative news outlets.

    Looks more like Rawhide.

    And they should sing that song behind a chicken wire fence.
