Jon Klein’s Side Job: Screenwriter

By Brian 

Alex Ben Block shares an interesting tidbit about CNN prez Jon Klein: “When he can find the time, which isn’t often these days, he turns to his other job after hours-putting the finishing touches on his latest feature film screenplay, called ‘The Pinnacle.’ He said last week it is an action-adventure techno-thriller about ‘five friends who band together to save the world.’ He admitted he is already past his deadline with Jerry Bruckheimer’s production company. Before joining CNN, Mr. Klein sold five screenplays. The only one that was produced was ‘Buffalo Soldiers,’ which ran on TNT.”
