37. Jerusalem Post is owned by Hollinger International. A RW rag since Conrad Black bought it
Conrad Black to sell 'The Jerusalem Post'

By Jane Robins, Media Correspondent


Conrad Black, the Canadian tycoon who owns The Daily Telegraph, has put The Jerusalem Post up for sale, reviving speculation that he may leave the newspaper business.

In July, Mr Black took £1.6bn from the sale of most of his 350 North American titles, and The Jerusalem Post is expected to fetch as much as $80m (£56m)

During his 11-year ownership of The Post, he has moved the newspaper away from a left-leaning tradition, which caused controversy earlier this year when the paper's editor, David Makovsky, quit because he felt the paper had moved too far to the right.
