...business at 24, after his father committed suicide. Turner was so successful in his advertising venture that he was able to acquire and enlarge a foundering local UHF television station. In 1976 he started bouncing its signals off a satellite to cable-TV systems across the U.S. The result: Super-Station WTBS, which now reaches some 34 million viewers and last year earned profits of $65.8 million on sales of $177.4 million.

The ideal mix, in Quinn's opinion, is a banner story across the top that grabs the reader's attention (SUPER HORSE JOHN HENRY PUT TO PASTURE headlined one issue last week). Another story tries to get a jump on the day's events (CHINA'S LI, REAGAN TALK PACTS TODAY). A third piece, dubbed Cover Story, deals in ankle-high depth with a current concern (USA'S 11,871 AIDS VICTIMS...
