Bezos is on the record as talking about what motivates his philanthropy: “I’m thinking about a philanthropy strategy that is the opposite of how I mostly spend my time — working on the long term,” he wrote. “For philanthropy, I find I’m drawn to the other end of the spectrum: the right now.”
Whether you'd call the Post philanthropic probably depends on whether you think the small profit that the Post makes is what motivates Bezos. Given both Bezos immense wealth and his views on profit in general, I'd err on the side of calling it philanthropic.
