Kerajaan media Turner dimulai dengan bisnis [[billboard (iklan)|billboard]] ayahnya yang diopernya ketika ia berusia 24 tahun setelah ayahnya bunuh diri. Bisnis billboard ini, ''Turner Outdoor Advertising'', bernilai sekitar $1 juta ketika Turner mengopernya pada [[1963]]. Pada tahun [[1970]] ia membeli sebuah stasiun [[Ultra high frequency|UHF]] di [[Atlanta]] dan mulai membangun [[Turner Broadcasting System]]. Stasiun televisinya, [[Cable News Network]] mengubah secara revolusioner media berita dan menjadi menonjol ketika meliput kecelakaan peluncuran pesawat ruang angkasa [[STS-51-L|''Challenger'']] pada 1986 dan [[Perang Teluk Persia]] pada [[1991]]. Dengan menggunakan kerajaan medianya untuk publisitas, Turner mengubah tim bisbol [[Atlanta Braves]] menjadi sebuah waralaba populer secara nasional. Kemudian ia menyelenggarakan pertandingan olah raga amal [[Goodwill Games]].

Kesukaan Turner untuk membuat pernyataan-pernyataan kontroversial membuat ia dijuluki "Mulut Selatan (Amerika)." Turner juga membuat berita karena pernikahannya yang banyak dipublikasikan dengan [[Jane Fonda]] serta perceraian mereka kemudian.

Selain sumbangan dermanya, Turner banyak mendukung gerakan campuran antara lingkungan hidup dan kapitalisme. ia memiliki tanah jauh lebih banyak dari orang Amerika manapun, dan menggunakan banyak dari tanahnya itu sebagai tempat peternakan untuk rencananya memopulerkan kembali [[Ted's Montana Grill|daging bison]], dan dalam proses tersebut ia mengumpulkan kawanan bison terbesar di seluruh dunia.

He purchased the [[Atlanta Braves]] and [[Atlanta Hawks]] in 1976 and created the [[Goodwill Games]] in 1986. His relationship with the Braves was somewhat peculiar before the team's success in the 1990s; Turner was one of the more hands-on owners in [[baseball]] history, at one point going as far as to give the team's regular manager the day off so Turner could manage. About this experience, he famously said, "Managing isn't that difficult, you just have to score more runs than the other guy". [[Turner Field]], which was first used for the [[1996 Summer Olympics]] as [[Centennial Olympic Stadium]] and then converted into a baseball-only facility for the Braves shortly thereafter, is named after him.

Following the acquisition, Ted Turner assumed an enormous debt and had no other choice but to sell parts of the acquisition. MGM/UA Entertainment Co. was sold back to Kirk Kerkorian. The MGM/UA Studio lot in Culver City was sold to Lorimar/Telepictures. Turner kept MGM/UA's pre-1986 and pre-merger film and TV library, which included nearly all of MGM/UA's material made before the merger, and a small portion of [[United Artists]]'s film and TV properties (which included very few UA pictures, the TV series ''[[Gilligan's Island]]'', the [[RKO Radio Pictures]] library, and the pre-1948 Warner Bros. library that was once the property of [[Associated Artists Productions]], UA Television's predecessor company).

In the mid-1980s, Turner became a driving force for the [[Film colorization|colorization]] of black and white films. In 1985, the film ''[[Yankee Doodle Dandy]]'' became the first black and white movie to be redistributed in color, thanks to computer colorization. Despite widespread opposition to the practice by many film aficionados, stars and directors, the movie won over a sizeable section of the public on its re-release [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0035575/trivia], and Turner would soon colorize a majority of films that he had owned. However, in the mid-1990s, the high cost of the process led Turner to abandon the idea of colorizing films. In contrast with TNT, TCM has shown the unaltered versions of films.

Robert Edward "Ted" Turner III (lahir 19 November 1938) adalah seorang Amerika raja media massa dan filantropis. Ia terkenal sebagai pendiri TBS dan CNN, serta janjinya untuk menyumbangkan $1 miliar kepada PBB melalui Yayasan PBB miliknya.

Kerajaan media Turner dimulai dengan bisnis billboard ayahnya yang diopernya ketika ia berusia 24 tahun setelah ayahnya bunuh diri. Bisnis billboard ini, Turner Outdoor Advertising, bernilai sekitar $1 juta ketika Turner mengopernya pada 1963. Pada tahun 1970 ia membeli sebuah stasiun UHF di Atlanta dan mulai membangun Turner Broadcasting System. Stasiun televisinya, Cable News Network mengubah secara revolusioner media berita dan menjadi menonjol ketika meliput kecelakaan peluncuran pesawat ruang angkasa Challenger pada 1986 dan Perang Teluk Persia pada 1991. Dengan menggunakan kerajaan medianya untuk publisitas, Turner mengubah tim bisbol Atlanta Braves menjadi sebuah waralaba populer secara nasional. Kemudian ia menyelenggarakan pertandingan olahraga amal Goodwill Games.

Kesukaan Turner untuk membuat pernyataan-pernyataan kontroversial membuat ia dijuluki "Mulut Selatan (Amerika)." Turner juga membuat berita karena pernikahannya yang banyak dipublikasikan dengan Jane Fonda serta perceraian mereka kemudian.

Selain sumbangan dermanya, Turner banyak mendukung gerakan campuran antara lingkungan hidup dan kapitalisme. ia memiliki tanah jauh lebih banyak dari orang Amerika manapun, dan menggunakan banyak dari tanahnya itu sebagai tempat peternakan untuk rencananya memopulerkan kembali daging bison, dan dalam proses tersebut ia mengumpulkan kawanan bison terbesar di seluruh dunia.

Biografi

Awal kehidupan

Turner dilahirkan di Cincinnati, Ohio. Ketika berusia 9 tahun, keluarganya pindah ke Savannah, Georgia. Ia belajar di Sekolah McCallie, sebuah sekolah Kristen tanpa afiliasi di Chattanooga, Tennessee. Turner kemudian kuliah di Universitas Brown dan, meskipun ia bukan mahasiswa yang menonjol di kelasnya, ia menjadi wkail presiden Persatuan Debat Brown. Turner dikeluarkan dari Brown pada 1960 karena menerima tamu seorang perempuan tanpa izin di kamar asramanya.

Ted Turner mulai berlayar pada usia 9 tahun. Ia ikut serta dalam kompetisi ketika berusia 11 tahun di program junior dari Klub Yacht Savannah, dan kemudian bertanding dalam percobaan-percobaan Olimpiade pada 1964. Pada 1970-an, Turner ikut pertandingan kapal layar di Piala Amerika. Pada 1977, ia mengepalai yacht yang menang, Courageous, dan menarik publisitas karena muncul dalam konferensi pers setelah pertandingan dalam keadaan mabuk.


Pada 1998, Turner menyumbang $1 miliar dalam bentuk saham Time Warner kepada berbagai usaha PBB, mendirikan Yayasan PBB. Namun, rincian bagaimana dana itu dialokasikan tidak banyak diketahui. Sarjana hak asasi manusia, Mary Ann Glendon mencatat bahwa "Sikap Tn. Turner tampak bukan seperti memberi melainkan lebih sebagai upaya mengambil alih badan-badan PBB dengan akses istimewa kepada penduduk yang tak berdaya." Badan-badan PBB diharuskan mengajukan proposal kepada Yayasan PBB. Yayasan ini harus dipimpin oleh orang yang mempunyai pandangan yang sama dengan Turner, bekas pejabat Departemen Luar Negeri AS, Timothy Wirth. Wirth memimpin agenda pengendalian kependudukan AS pada Konferensi Kairo 1994 dan telah memuji RRT dan kebijakannya yang memaksakan satu anak saja untuk "perencanaan KB yang sangat efektif dalam investasi yang tinggi." (Lihat "Unfinished Business" oleh Mary Ann Glendon dalam The American Journal of Jurisprudence, 1999.)
