One reason for the attacks on Amazon: they are coming from the New York Times.

Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post -- a significant competitor to the NYT.

The NYT is in the happy position of damaging a competitor while generating clicks.

It's personal, in other words.

That's a copout. Just because Bezos buys one large newspaper now means that any other newspaper presenting a well-documented expose of the company with hundreds of their own employees talking about systemic issues is invalid?
