In some sense, we are all living in Ted Turner's world.
When Ted Turner comes along in 1980 to start CNN, the news is primarily delivered by three anchormen on three networks, ABC, CBS, and NBC.
They are on the air for 30 minutes a night.
That was your big dose of news.
Ted Turner said, I think people will watch for longer.
In fact, I think they will watch for 24 hours.
That was a revolutionary thought.
i could see we were going to be a big winner those days when people were making fun of it kidding it cbs wanted to buy you all my life people kidded about me when i said and he was vindicated he drew huge audiences cnn was everywhere in very short order in every sports bar in every corporate office in every airport in hotels and finally homes around the world
The idea that there's a bottomless 24-hour appetite for news and information is foundational to the entire development of media ever since, to the establishment of social media, to the establishment of streaming, to the establishment of all these many podcasts that we have today.
There's no end to the appetite, and it's Ted Turner who makes that realization.
