The Time Warner Center building in the city of New York in the United States that houses the offices and studios of CNN was evacuated on Thursday night after the police received a call about a bomb threat. CNN went to live programming from another location and Lemon said in a phone interview with the network that not only did the threat disrupt his program but “it’s also disrupted the entire neighborhood.”*

In October, CNN was targeted in a wave of pipe bombs mailed to the network as well as to prominent critics of President Donald Trump. The New York Police Department tweeted that a bomb threat was called into the Time Warner Center in Columbus Circle, where CNN is located, at around 10:35 p.m., and that the threat had not been substantiated and police were "performing a comprehensive sweep-and-search of the facility." CNN’s bureau was evacuated two months ago after a package with an explosive device addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan, who was a contributor to the network at the time, was discovered.
