The Latest: Prosecutors probing tabloid’s Bezos story

NEW YORK (AP) — The Latest on Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos’ allegations against the National Enquirer’s publisher (all times local):

Federal prosecutors in New York are probing whether the National Enquirer’s parent company violated a cooperation agreement in its handling of the story regarding Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.

Bezos claims American Media Inc. threatened to publish intimate photos of him unless he stopped investigating how the tabloid obtained his private exchanges with his mistress.

Two people familiar with the matter tell The Associated Press that prosecutors are looking at whether an email exchange Bezos published shows AMI violated an agreement it struck to avoid prosecution for alleged campaign finance violations. The people were not authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The agreement requires AMI commit no crimes for three years. AMI did not respond to requests for comment.

I do find this entire situation amusing. The WP paper owned by Bezos spent countless articles providing coverage of the Stormy situation while pushing endless editorials proclaiming Trump an adulterer. Bezos also took personal shots at Trump over his immorality in the Stormy situation.

Now if comes out that Bezos has been not only banging a chick while married but taking the home wrecker on multiple expensive excursions. Bezos was forced to come out with a public statement to beat the Inquirer which was about to publish the articles on his worldwide romps.

I guess the lesson to Bezos is "don't throw rocks when you live in a glass house."

One of the things I admire about Bezos is he bought the WAPO to protect it and preserve it as a great institution of Amwrican Journalism. He has nothing to do with its management or editorial policy. But those who write for WaPo must be aware of what might displease him.

Blackmail is a crime. This time, the Enquirer has met more than their match. The Saudis have met more than their match as well. Nice to see it.
