Innovator, visionary, trailblazer, humanitarian – Cable News Network founder, Ted Turner, is the subject of a profile encompassing his remarkable life and achievements. Reported by CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer, this special explores his difficult early years, his extraordinary career, his legendary America's Cup win, Turner's historic humanitarian, environmental, and cable television legacies – and everything in between.
