Federal Agents Arrest Don Lemon Over Church Protest

Former CNN anchor Don Lemon and Minnesota journalist Georgia Fort were arrested by federal agents over a protest at a St. Paul church. Authorities say the protest violated federal protections for places of worship, while Lemon and Fort say they were reporting as journalists.

Lemon’s lawyer called the arrest an attack on the First Amendment, and Lemon says he will fight the charges.
