WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Wednesday granted a full pardon to Conrad Black, a former newspaper publisher who has written a flattering political biography of Trump.
Black's media empire once included the Chicago Sun-Times and The Daily Telegraph of London. He was convicted of fraud in 2007 and spent three and a half years in prison. An appeals court reversed two convictions, but left two others in place.
In 2018, Black published"Donald J. Trump: A President Like No Other." He wrote a column Wednesday in Canada's National Post describing how Trump called him and revealed the pardon. In 2015, Black wrote a National Review essay titled"Trump Is the Good Guy." Trump tweeted it was an"honor" to read the piece, adding,"As one of the truly great intellects & my friend, I won't forget!"
Sanders said Black is the author of several notable biographies, including volumes on Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Richard Nixon, but she did not mention his book about Trump.
