Remembering Ted Turner: A Transformative Legacy
This week we remember when giants strode this earth - the life and legacy of CNN founder Ted Turner. First our conversation from his Montana ranch in 2015, where he told me about the uphill battle to make 24-hour news, his fight to conserve the planet and banish nuclear weapons, and his difficult relationship with his father. Then memories from veteran journalist and author Walter Isaacson, about his years as Chairman and CEO of CNN under our founder. We also discuss his new book on America’s founding principles and the greatest sentence ever written. Plus, we turn to Christiane’s archive, as Britain’s broadcasting legend David Attenborough celebrates his 100th birthday. We hear about his greatest moments bringing the wonders of the natural world into our living rooms. Air date: May 9, 2026 Guests: Ted Turner (archive) Walter Isaacson David Attenborough (archive) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
