2. Er...
While I have enormous respect for Ted Turner, I, uhm, thought he was big media...

Actually, come to think of it, I remember how CNN, in its early days, was--at least in some aspects--a pretty first-rate news channel. Then, with the exception of Ammonpour(sp?), it seems they canned all of their best reporters, started adopting nifty broadcast graphics, and became news-o-tainment along with all the rest. (However, they still look like the paragons of professional journalism compared to Fox, but then again, so does the National Enquirer.)

Cheers,

Robert
