Jeff Bezos owns the 2nd largest newspaper in the country, and now a major movie studio. I would say he qualifies.
- vorpalhex 5y agoJohnny Depp would basically qualify under that definition.
- fallingknife 5y agoAccording to Google his net worth is $150 million, so that is 0.1% of Bezos, and he owns 0 powerful companies to Bezos' 3. Not remotely in the same league.
- Layke1123 5y agoNo, he wouldn't. He ain't a billionaire with significant portions of the economy at his service.
- e17 5y agoHow has he used that newspaper to exert political control over the US?
- scotth 5y agoHow easily is that question answered?
- Tepix 5y agoWould you like a list of stories they decided not to run?
- peteretep 5y ago…yes? I’ve seen articles openly critical of Bezos in the WashPo and ones supportive of Amazon workers unionising.
- 80mph 5y agoHe might not have used his newspaper, but AWS was instrumental in de-platforming Parler after the Jan 6 mutiny.
