Amazon has many different interests, much of which could be affected by negative press. Amazon has a 600 Million dollar contract with the CIA, and regularly does business with many other agencies of the US government. It would be safe to say that between its fledgeling media content group, its online sales group, and its cloud computing group, there are a huge range of potential conflicts of interest between its news-reporting subsidiary and the others. Besides the fact that it is not in the interests of the company to report in a way that could negatively affect the stock price, it is also in its interests not to report negatively on topics which could impact its lucrative customer contracts. And on top of it all, if Bezos - the richest man in the world - just gets something in his craw, that could also affect what gets reported, as it has been with every media baron in history.
