The Amazon founder has sold nearly $3 billion in stock so far this month. He still holds $220 billion worth of Amazon shares.

When Jeff Bezos started Amazon.com Inc. (ticker: AMZN) in 1994, even he probably didn't imagine the powerhouse it would become: A humble company that began as an online bookstore ultimately grew into a multitrillion-dollar e-commerce behemoth and cloud computing king.

Just 11 days before the U.S. presidential election, Jeff Bezos decided to kill The Washington Post’s editorial endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris on grounds of “compromised objectivity.” I think his decision undermines the very foundation upon which journalistic credibility is established.
