http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/09/t... MSNBC's Touré labeled CNN's black news anchor Don Lemon as a "white leader" for not speaking up against white-on-white violence.
"The Cycle" co-host took to Twitter on Sunday to lash out against Lemon, as well as Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh, who he put in the same category. Here's the tweet that started it all:
