CNN has denied a report that it reached a multimillion-dollar settlement with Don Lemon, a former anchor for the outlet who was fired last year.

The report claimed that Lemon agreed to a separation deal worth about $24.5 million with CNN, which would have totaled to the final amount that Lemon agreed to in his final contract with the network. However, a spokesperson with the network has called the report “incorrect” but did not specify what was incorrect.
