Is Conrad Black writing book reviews from prison?

Today, the New York Sun has a highly critical book review of Rick Perlstein’s new book “Nixonland,” concluding it is “unrigorously and almost unrelievedly opinionated” and its claims are largely “demonstrably false.” The author of this review? Conrad Black, the disgraced press baron who was sentenced to 6 1/2 years in prison last year for “on three fraud charges and one charge of obstruction of justice.” Read the first chapter of Nixonland here.

Who should be communicating from prison? That would be Charlie Ward, the fast fingered treasurer of the National Republican Congressional Committee, which held its Presidential dinner last night. I think the jalapenos may have gone down wrong.
