Ted Turner wrote this in his 2008 autobiography Call Me Ted. He wanted to create CNN so that it would do “serious journalism,” adding:
“I wanted to present the news in an unbiased fashion. At that time, some of the evening anchors, (of network broadcast news) including Walter Cronkite, were injecting their own opinions into the telecasts and I just didn’t like it. (CNN president Reese) Schonfeld and I decided that on CNN, news would be the star, not our on-air people.”
Guess what Ted?
