If it wasn't for Ted Turner, I wouldn't know Joe Bob Briggs and MonsterVision, I wouldn't have experienced the Monday Night Wars of wrestling, classic films on TCM and watch the programs of Cartoon Network and Adult Swim.
RIP Mr. Turner
Ted pre-recorded a video of soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines standing in front of the Techwood studios and performing an instrumental version of "Nearer, My God, To Thee," to be aired by CNN at the moment the world ends. That says it all.
