For comparison, even Rupert Murdoch refused to kill the WSJ expose on Theranos when asked to do so by Elizabeth Holmes. He did this, despite being a major investor.

Shame on Bezos indeed.

WaPo editors were broken records, engaging in ideological activism rather than journalism day after day.

In contrast, the WSJ reporters did their actual job, even if it was counter to Murdoch's financial interests.

Big difference.
