Morning Wire: Ted's life for sale!

Published: Tuesday, June 06, 2006

Legendary Media mogul Ted Turner is putting something very important to him on the block...............his life. Who wouldn't want to grab the rights to this man's life and publish a book and even make a movie about him?

Media mogul Ted Turner is kicking off the auction for his life story today, and some publishing sources say they expect the Mouth of the South to snag an advance of $7 million - or higher.

Turner is the co-founder of CNN, the ex-spouse of actress Jane Fonda and the largest single landholder in the U.S.

He's famous for shooting from the hip, for long-running feuds with other media titans, for pledging to donate $1 billion to the United Nations and for pioneering the 24/7 news format in 1980.
