Abd al-Ghani Salam (Arabic: عبدُ الغني سلام) (1942 – 25 July 2017) is a Lebanese journalist from Beirut. He is the founder of the Al Liwaa newspaper. Abd al-Ghani Salam was born in Beirut in 1942, he studied at the National School of Choueifat, and continued his studies in the university majoring in politics and economics in 1962. He published a weekly magazine called Al Liwaa in November 1963, and it became a daily newspaper in 1970. He was famous for his support for the Arab cases and especially the Palestinians issue. He was known for his attempts – through his acquaintances and contacts – to extinguish the disputes between Arab leaders and the Palestinian, Arab or Islamic leaderships. For that reason, the Palestinian president Yasser Arafat called him "the firefighter". At the same time, he was known to neutralize the language in his newspaper, relying on the language of moderation and balance. He refused the intervention of " Al Liwaa " being a part in the media battles that was between the Arab capitals at that time. So he maintained relations with the leaders of the Arab regimes and in his internal relations. He also maintained an equal relation with the leaderships in Lebanon, especially in Beirut.
