“And you will see that the future in many of these countries will be built on the back of women. And it's a dramatic shift, a dramatic cultural shift. And I hope that it's one that, and so that's what I saw in the bedrooms when I was doing this program and in the bars, in all these other places where I went to talk to women and young men. The great thing about my son's generation, he's about to be 18, is the level and all of you who are young people have a level of tolerance and acceptance of gender. the relationship between men and women.”

“Yeah, I mean, I think the global trend is the young people bursting out of the confines of their culture, of their context, of their religious mores. And it's a story, and particularly young women. This, I think, is the most important thing I learned. Because anecdotally, I've picked up in many places that I've been to that over the last decade or so women make up more than 50% of university students in, let's say Iran or Saudi Arabia or wherever it is, in the places you'd least imagine. This whole Me Too movement in the West is happening as it sort of quietly been happening around the rest of the world, not defined by Me Too, but by education, by economic empowerment, by pushing through, by no means is it settled. And obviously over there they do worse off than people over here, but they're still pushing and pushing the boundary.”

“In a place that We're always complaining about the demise of TV and the demise look at us. Look at us. This is CNN's moment. And we've had many moments, but after a trough, this is like a major, major moment. And I think people rightly look at us and know that they're going to get the facts and they're going to get the news and whether they're here in the United States or around the world today. This is a major, major, important bit of currency. Very, very important.”

“Which was great actually because it was great. I now am disappointed that a woman wasn't as encouraging as I would hope And I'm very encouraging to lots and lots of young women and men. But I think what I really love is that I started at a startup. CNN was a startup in 1980. By the time I got there in 1983, it was still kind of a startup. You know, all the people of my, yeah, well, Ted Turner is a hero in my view. He's an American hero, an American original. He is revolutionary. You know, cable changed the world. Cable did something. It democratized information. It democratized news, not just here in the United States, but around the world when we went international, countries that only had state-sponsored news and information suddenly, if you had a satellite dish or whatever you could, you could see CNN. You could see that there was other possibilities from around the world. It seems quaint right now, but this was in 1980 and then 90 and etc. And it did actually change the world. And I love being...”

And very equal that's dealing with a massive influx of refugees from the Muslim world, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, all of that kind of stuff. And they are having to teach these men how to behave respectfully and equally to women, including sexually. And we sat in on a lesson that a young German woman was giving to these equally young Syrian men. And they literally didn't even know what the word orgasm meant. And they didn't know that women had them. So there was a lot of talk about how to recognize, respect, do all that. So that's that shortcoming.”

“They believe negotiations is a zero sum game. That we have to win everything and you have to lose everything. That will never work, especially with a developed North Korea, as we know right now, which is why the Iran nuclear deal was important, not perfect, but important, because it involved negotiations, which meant that we had to give something in order to get something. And what we got was nuclear security for a period of years They're going to have to accept that with North Korea, they're going to have to give something as well as take something. And for those purists who insist that negotiations are a sign of weakness, nothing will happen if that carries on.”

“But the real fact is While all this negotiating bombastic stuff has been going on over the last 20-odd years, they have now pretty close to perfected what it means to be a nuclear weapons power with a delivery system, intercontinental ballistic missiles. So what are they going to give? And what is the United States going to give? That's why it's so different today than when I covered it and went to North Korea in 2008.”

“But here's the thing this is the very important thing. Everybody's look, the truth is that North Korea has actually done something pretty incredible. It said that we will freeze ballistic missile testing, we'll free nuclear testing. We don't even mind and we understand for the moment that the US and South Korea are allied militarily, that there will be military exercises and this and that, which they have always minded about.

“Dialogue because some analysts believe that this is the moment, depending on what President Trump does, depending on what's on the negotiating table, that North Korea can start really driving the wedge, not just between the US and South Korea, but fulfilling China's greatest hope, which is to decrease the American presence in all aspects, particularly military in Asia, in the Pacific. That's something they're going to have to be very careful about the United States in these negotiations if they go ahead.”

And now we're dealing with an administration that appears to say that it's not interested in those kinds of historic American leadership models, that it's all about America first and economic nationalism and this and that. And, you know, people are concerned because if America doesn't lead, who's going to lead? China Yes, not Russia, China. Do we want to live in a China led, a China prism of the world?

“So I know But I thought it was great crazy policy too. However, guess why they do it? Take the Putin invading Crimea model. You don't stand up to this stuff and the whole field is open for more incursion, more attack, more of this. So they're saying if we do nothing over the steel tariffs, if we do nothing, what's going to come down the pike at us? We have to. This is my point We have to, no matter how ridiculous it sounds, stand up against these incursions, whether it's fake news incurring into our sphere, whether whatever governments decide how to react to tariffs and this and that. So, you know. New Jeans, Harley Davidson's, peanut butter But then, two days later, you hear, well, maybe we're going to exempt our friends from these tariffs. Right.

“Well, I would say that I mean, it's nothing new, but a lot of people have absorbed a lot of world leaders and governments have absorbed the Trump factor. So they've learned how to read the tweets, listen to the speeches, but watch what actually happens and base their policy around what actually happens. So let's just take the latest, which was the tariffs. So, from Europe, the answer was let's wait and see. And this is I'm quoting now, the head of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, said, you know, if the US can do stupid, we can do stupid and we're going to have to do stupid.”

“And I think that's really important. But let's not kid ourselves that fake or false news is a trumpian development. It's not. This has been going on since time immemorial. It's true that the president of the United States has used it as a weapon to bludgeon us from the White House, the most powerful purge in the world, and has therefore maybe lowered the bar of what's acceptable in terms of treating journalists and treating fact as opposed to fiction, and has also empowered and enabled the worst kinds of leaders around the world who have no respect for independent journalism or the truth, right? So that's all a problem. Okay, so now we understand that. Now we have to just keep up the good fight. And we all need to be implicated in this. We all need to be involved in this.

And while they're still fighting for basic rights, we here in the West, we have our rights. They are enshrined. They're just not enforced. We have our rights. Like in every organization has its HR policy. Just got to enforce it. Anyway, I'll come back to that in a minute. But what we still don't have in the West is equal pay for equal play. And that is another massive thing that we have to achieve. It is under no circumstances okay. For a man to be paid more than a woman for doing the same job or doing a lesser job.”
