Ted Turner, thrice married and a notorious womanizer, had many exes, the most famous of whom was his last wife, Jane Fonda. This was also Turner's most surprising relationship since, on paper at least, the two couldn't have been more different. He was a buccaneer capitalist, best known for launching CNN, the world's first 24/7 cable news channel, in 1980. Politically, he seemed an avatar of the boorish New South, prone to making ethnic jokes and deriding his media rivals in 1980 as "a bunch of pinkos."
