Yes, Don Lemon was indicted on federal civil rights charges related to his coverage of a protest at a church in Minnesota. The indictment alleges that he was involved in planning the protest and withheld details of these plans in his reporting leading up to the demonstration. Lemon has maintained that he was acting as a journalist during the event.

It's not uncommon for journalists to embedded with military operations, protests, and organized gatherings. Without the activist group, nothing would've happened. In this day and age, there are content creators and influencers, such as Lemon, who are involved. They've arrested at least two members of the activist group as well as two journalists including Lemon. It remains to be seen whether the journalists will be convicted for helping with the planning the protest since media coverage can be integral to the planning process.
