announced in a statement by CNN before Lemon posted his own version of the day’s events online, came as a surprise across the news media spectrum and only hours after Lemon had appeared on “CNN This Morning” in his daily role as show host.But it wasn’t bad ratings after his shift from primetime to mornings or an investigation into his history of inappropriate remarks or behavior in the workplace from a recent report that ultimately toppled Lemon. According to the New York Times, a more recent issue with an on-air interview he was part of last Wednesday in which he casually shot back at an Indian American about “whatever ethnicity you are” played a role in his firing.

‘On a Wing and a Prayer’ Review: Dennis Quaid’s Spiritual Thriller Flies on Bad Faith
06.04.2023 - 15:01 / variety.com
Todd Gilchrist editor No redemptive stone is left unturned in “On a Wing and a Prayer,” Sean McNamara’s formulaic dramatization of the true events surrounding civilian Doug White’s 2009 emergency landing of a King Air 200 plane carrying his wife and children. Dennis Quaid leads a cast that includes Heather Graham, Jesse Metcalfe, Brett Rice and Rocky Myers through a “story of faith and survival” far less extraordinary than the filmmakers would have you believe, at least when working from a script by Brian Egeston that feels as mechanical as an aircraft instruction manual.

Jeff dies days later, and the Whites travel to Florida for the funeral, where Doug experiences such a crisis of faith from the loss that he can’t even speak publicly about his brother. But only minutes into the flight back to Louisiana after the service, the pilot of their private plane succumbs to a fatal heart attack. With nominal experience behind the yoke, Doug promptly panics, and air traffic control prepares for the worst; the likeliest outcome is a crashed plane and multiple lives lost, especially without any experienced pilots available to coach him. But in a last-ditch effort to find a solution, aspiring controller Dan Favio (Myers) makes a cellular call from
