“Ted Turner transformed television and forever changed how the world receives news. With the launch of CNN, he pioneered the 24-hour news model and helped usher in a new era for the cable industry built on innovation, competition, and consumer choice. Ted was a visionary whose impact on journalism and media is impossible to overstate. On behalf of NCTA and the cable industry, we honor his extraordinary legacy and extend our thoughts to his family, friends, and all those inspired by his groundbreaking work.”
