> Next time a law surfaces Amazon tax they will have much bigger mallet with which to hit the gong. WaPo has amazing team and journalists. No need to wait until next time, Amazon labor conditions have been making headlines recently and even Obama is making gestures to do something. Since Amazon is such a low margin business raising wages could be crippling so there is an immediate and critical need for Amazon to start doing public relations and lobbying. An important media analysis would be to compare WaPo coverage of Amazon, especially the labor conditions issue, before and after the acquisition. It would also be interesting to know how much Amazon has increased lobbying funding and political contributions recently. http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2013-07-24/politics/40860559_1_president-barack-obama-amazon-high-wage-jobs http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2013-07-24/politics/40860...
