After learning of Turner’s death, Greta decides to share an old memory that captures both the strange energy of early CNN and Turner’s larger-than-life presence. She reflects on how beloved he was inside the network, how unconventional he could be, and how completely he changed television news by turning CNN into a 24-hour operation when many people mocked the idea. The main story centers on a White House Correspondents’ Photographers Association dinner shortly after Turner married Jane Fonda. Greta and Wolf Blitzer both wind up in an awkward tug-of-war over the same chair after Jane privately tells each of them they must sit next to her because she “has to tell” them something. Greta wins the seat, spends the entire dinner feeling guilty, and then discovers afterward that Jane had told Wolf the exact same thing and never said a word to either of them all night. The result is a light, funny media-world anecdote that also serves as a small tribute to the odd, memorable world Ted Turner created at CNN. Got a comment or question?
