A shocking revelation from CNN anchor Don Lemon worsened the Eddie Long case. In a live interview, the anchor admitted that he was sexually abused by the Bishop during his childhood.

While interviewing three members of the congregation led by Eddie Long, Lemon confessed,

I have never admitted this on TV, I’m a victim of a pedophile when I was a kid. Someone who was much older than me.

This was the incident Lemon also concealed from his mom until he became 30.

Eddie Long, Pastor of mega-church New Birth Missionary Baptist Church was convicted in a sex scandal few days ago. Lemon, a rising star of the cable network played a video that showed one of the alleged victim’s lawyer explaining how Long could have made the things done.

“Those are the things that they do”, Lemon said.

The language, ‘This doesn’t make you gay, if you do this…’ So when someone starts to say that, you start to perk and say, ‘ho,’

, Lemon said.

After the interview Lemon in his Twitter posted,

I had no idea I’d say that on national TV. It just came out. Sadly, it’s the truth for so many young men.

However, this statement of Lemon has already raised the eyebrows of some people and they are criticizing such personal attack on Long.
