...with Time Warner's stock having been among the biggest dogs in media since Lassie, Levin has thrown the dice again--and this time rolled a Ted. As in Turner. Time Warner's merger with Turner Broadcasting, sealed last week, makes the company the biggest in media, with unconsolidated sales of $21 billion.
