Ted Turner wants to run CNN again
The Hollywood Reporter
No knock on his “good friend” Jeff Bewkes — or on Superman — but Ted Turner wishes that he were running Time Warner so that he could make some changes at Cartoon Network and CNN, the cable news channel he founded 29 years ago.
At CNN, he wants “less fluffy news and more international news,” especially about China, Turner says in an interview set to run on Bloomberg TV on Friday. “Less talk, more news,” he says.
As for Cartoon Network, Turner tells anchor Betty Liu, “If I had control of it, I’d put ‘Captain Planet’ on at a top time period so that kids would see the environmental superhero instead of just Superman.”
Ted, Ted, Ted, your biggest mistake was Jane Fonda, the Traitor!!
