A year ago, in explaining why he had blocked the publication of an endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, Washington Post owner, and Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos conceded that "When it comes to the appearance of conflict, I am not an ideal owner of "The Post".
On at least three occsions in the past two weeks, an official Post editorial has taken on matters in which Bezos has a financial or corporate interest without noting his stake. In each case, the Post's official editorial line landed in sync with it's owner's financial interests.
In the most recent instance, the ost defended President Trump's jaw-dropping moves to raze the East Wing of the White House without any of the typically required studies or consultations as he seeks to build a vast ballroom. "Trump's undertaking is a shot across the bow of NIMBYs everywhere," the Post wrote in its editorial, which first appeared online Saturday.
