    Editorial Reviews
    From Publishers Weekly
    I don't spend a lot of time dwelling on the past or thinking about myself, Turner claims, but the media tycoon turns out to have a pretty good memory—except for certain events, like the death of his younger sister, which he admits he's suppressed completely. After dropping out of college, Turner worked his way up from the bottom of his father's billboard company, which he inherited when his father committed suicide, and then slowly turned it into an international media empire—an uphill battle he records in entertaining detail (I don't think of myself as losing, he says of the occasional setbacks, drawing on his experiences as a champion sailor. I'm simply learning how to win). Turner's version of events is frequently interrupted by supplementary Ted Stories from those closest to him, including his children and business colleagues—even competitors. These commentaries are not always complimentary; in two passages, ex-wife Jane Fonda candidly discusses the psychological blocks she believes keep him from achieving full emotional and spiritual intimacy. There's little to challenge Turner's provocative reputation, but his reflections reveal the depth of calculation behind his career as a so-called loose cannon. (Nov. 11)Correction: The correct publisher of The Empathy Gap, reviewed Oct. 27, is Viking.

    Review
    "Turner's personality infuses every page of 'Call Me Ted." (USA Today )

    "One of the best business books of 2008." (USA Today )

    "Mr. Turner is surprisingly candid...There is a remarkable lack of regret in Mr. Turner's writing, or of defensiveness...Mr. Turner's mantra seems to be to keep moving on." (The Economist )

    "The new memoir Call Me Ted makes the Mouth of the South seem like a pleasant-even modest!-creature." (The Daily Beast Michael Korda )
