∙ 9y agoActually, there was a period of time when he owned two newspapers in St. Louis. In 1878, he purchased the St. Louis Dispatch, which was bankrupt at the time (he paid $2,500 for it); he also bought half of the shares in the three year old St. Louis Evening Post. He persuaded its owner (John A. Dillon) to merge the Post with the Dispatch. In 1879, Pulitzer bought up the remaining shares of the Post, to become the owner of what is today still known as the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Joseph Pulitzer did not sell his newspaper, The New York World. Upon his death in 1911, control of the newspaper passed to his sons.
