President Trump pardoned former newspaper mogul Conrad Black, who was convicted in 2007 on charges that he swindled shareholders in his media empire out of $6 million, the White House announced.
. The charges stemmed from Black embezzling funds during the sale of some of Hollinger International's publishing assets.
The White House statement noted that Black wrote several biographies. It also said that while in prison he served as a tutor for 150 students. "He could not have been more gracious and quickly got to his point: he was granting me a full pardon that would 'Expunge the bad wrap you got,'" Black wrote, misspelling rap.
