“What Could Jeff Bezos Want With the Washington Post?” explores the Amazon founder and CEO’s purchase

Dan Pacheco, Newhouse’s Peter A. Horvitz Endowed Chair in Journalism Innovation, is the author of “What Could Jeff Bezos Want With the Washington Post?” The column, published on August 6, at PBS Idea Lab, discusses possible factors behind the purchase of the paper by Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com. “…the reality is that even Jeff Bezos probably doesn’t know what he’s getting into,” writes Pacheco.
