They Made America

They Made AmericaI just watched the first episode of the PBS series They Made America. It's a series that is premiering this week focusing on great innovators that changed the direction of this country. The opening segment featured the stories of Ted Turner and Russell Simons. The documentary shows how both had the ability to see a niche ignored by the mainstream, persevere to make it a success, and then once they accomplished their goals both continued to innovate so that they could maintain their success. It looks like the rest of the program, which continues tomorrow, should be interesting.
