Jewish philanthropist Michael Steinhardt is among the backers of a new New York newspaper. Two former leaders of the English-language Forward will edit the new daily, to be called The New York Sun. Seth Lipsky, the Forward’s former editor, and former managing editor Ira Stoll will head the new paper, which plans to debut next year. Another major investor is Hollinger International, the newspaper chain that owns the Jerusalem Post.
