One year on for Conrad Black

So it appears that former Telegraph owner Conrad Black is quite content being in prison.

According to the Toronto Star

Conrad Black's first year in prison has been surprisingly pleasant as the convicted media mogul has managed to use his time in jail to teach and write, but he remains furious about what he considers the destruction of his media empire, a longtime friend said today.

His friend Brian Stewart says that the tycoon

has managed to make his time in prison not only bearable, but intellectually stimulating by using his skills to teach other inmates, write books and articles, read and learn to play the piano
