Full description for Media Man
Ted Turner revolutionised television. Foreseeing cable's potential in its infancy, he transformed a tiny UHF station in Atlanta into a national superstation, invented CNN and turned sports teams and the MGM film library into lucrative programming. Ken Auletta, a very successful media journalist, enjoyed unparalleled access to the outspoken and defiant Turner in writing this "entertaining book" (The Sunday Telegraph), capturing the visionary businessman as he built - and lost - his improbable empire.
