Amazon Founder Acquires Washington Post

I just saw the headline. And Yes I hear that this is a deal being made by Bezos  and not on behalf of Amazon.

Jeff Bezos is said to be paying $250 Million in cash for the historic newspaper. Also included in the deal, El Tiempo Latino, Kaplan, Express newspaper, Southern Maryland Newspapers, Fairfax County Times, Greater Washington Publishing,Cable ONE , Slate magazine, ,The Gazette Newspapers, TheRoot.com, Foreign Policy, Post–Newsweek Stations - I think that's all of them.
