The CNN media network launched in Atlanta on June 1, 1980, as the world's first 24-hour news network. Turner had revolutionized cable television by broadcasting the TBS superstation worldwide via satellite and was convinced there was a market for an all-news network that could reach audiences through the growing cable and satellite network.

Headquartered in Atlanta, CNN opened news bureaus around the world. Through its affiliate channels and the competitors it inspired, CNN expanded its reach worldwide, revolutionizing the broadcasting industry and the way people receive news and information.
