If you constrain "reality" to the LinkedIn list[1] that Jeff referenced, Amazon is #1. If you drill into the urls and read the LinkedIn ranking methodology[2], you'll see it's based on views of the companys' job listings and career page.
If it was a ranking based on The New York Times stories and reader comments, Amazon would definitely not be #1.
Yes, when Jeff translates LinkedIn's limited criteria into "the most sought after places to work for professionals in the United States.", he's editorializing. That's not too surprising since it's a letter to his fellow owners. Cheerleading is to be expected.
