It looks like The Washington Post may run into a conflict of interest problem the next time it fawns over former President Barack Obama’s allegedly “chiseled pectorals.”
The Obama Foundation released a statement saying that leftist Post owner and mega-billionaire Jeff Bezos was donating a whopping $100 million “in honor of CongressmanJohn Lewis” (D-GA), who recently passed away. The Foundation called the donation "the largest individual contribution received to date." The purpose of the grant includes “help[ing] expand the scope of programming that reaches emerging leaders in the United States and around the world.” But this could present an issue for the newspaper Bezos owns, which has a sordid record of cheerleading for Obama. The most glaring example of the outlet’s bias was in December of 2008, when The Post was giddy for how “[t]he sun glinted off [Obama’s] chiseled pectorals sculpted during four weightlifting sessions each week, and a body toned by regular treadmill runs and basketball games.”

Not a shock since Biden in the puppet, and Obama is the puppet master.
In = is.
How about Bidens vice chair pick for the federal reserve bank system being married to the ambassador for Asian Affairs, a newly created position that includes China? Not one reporting of it. Not one question asked.
You know, keep talking, please.
There’s more questions on the don’t ask list issued by the Beltway overlords of information, than there are on the approved list of questions. Like a 500 to 1 ratio.
can we please get a conservative, or at least politically neutral, alternative to Amazon?
Will do but our media and journalists are numb to professional embarrassing at this point. The less controversial the reporting the more the rewards in their professional field.
Money laundering scheme?
Don’t be surprised if Big Mike ends up in the Executive Branch if Biden or Harris are, shall we say, repositioned.
A black, female(?) calling the shots? The left’s wet dream and Bezos gets an ambassadorship.
Heels has given Obama billions of in kind donations. What’s a few hundred mil for then Obama Worship and Praise center?
Jeff and Barry, get a room.
Its called a Bribe and/or buying influence.
Between his blog, aka the WaPo, and his payola/insurance to Bammy, Bezos needn’t worry at all about anti-trust legislation even when the pubbies take congress in Jan ‘23.
Government bought and paid for.
Just keep voting. As if it matters.
Yep.
True. A very sad statement about a Constitutionally protect profession.
