Its a modern incarnation of a billionaire buying a newspaper. Has that ever worked out well? Has it ever been altruistic?

I don't think Bezos' ownership of the Washington Post has gone badly so far.

Not much for WaPo perhaps, but for bezos that put him in the target sights of lot of people

Many of them state sponsored like Saudi government which targeted him after kashtogi.

He also got hacked and his dick pics were maybe compromised.

Those hacks could have accelerated his divorce too.

And yet, in a remarkable display of self unawareness, WaPo has declared[1] that Musk's move "Could Be Bad News for Free Speech."
